Hi! A pregnant stray cat decided we'd make a good home for herself and her 5 kittens, which will be 14 days old tomorrow. One of them - who is the "runt," I guess, since she's half the size of the others but more alert and active - still has her umbilical cord attached. It looks dry, but it's looked that way for almost a week now. There's a tiny part at her navel that doesn't look completely brown/black and dried. Should I do anything to facilitate the cord's falling off, or just let it be? Oh, and by the way - will anyone be needing any kittens in 6-8 weeks????

It fell off today. If I had posted about 10 days ago, it probably would have fallen off then.
Thanks for the reply.
