Has she been seen by a vet? She really does need a vet to look at her, so if anything does go wrong, your vet at least knows the cat you are calling about.

Plus being a stray, she needs to be checked for all known transmitable diseases. The leaking you are seeing if it is not foul smelling, it just means that delivery is close. Put her in a quiet dark room with a nest box or two that she can choose from.

What color was the stuff leaking? Was it green/yellow or red/brown? my cat ahd a yellow/green and she had that about a week ago and the vet said it wasd fine. Both are fine, but the red/brown is closer to brith (said the vet, not me) The green/yellow means it is about a few days to a week away, but all cats are different! Good Luck!

not sure what color it was at first it happend on my dark blue blanket i had on my bed. but what i saw in her nest was a very lite yellowish color with a smal dot of red in it not sure if it was blood or not but it was so small i coudl barley see it.

i have anthor Q someone said to feed the mama cat kitten formula to help her gain some weight back since shes skin and bones.. but i was wondering if i could feed her human baby formula???

 

[hissy]

No please don't. Cats are not like people and so you should mix up some kitten glop and feed her that.

The recipe is on www.kitten-rescue.com
it is fairly easy to make, and cats and kittens love it- You can also feed her dry kitten chow IAMS would be good

 

[teddybear]

ok i all ready have her on iams kitten food. and ill make her some kitten glop for her tonight and see if she will eat that.. she hasnt been eatting much at all today but i guess thats because shes getting ready to have the kittens soon. how soon i dont know.

 

[hissy]

Could be, some of them eat right up to when the first contraction starts, while others stop eating 24 hrs in advance-
