When I woke this morning at 6:30, we found our rescued pregnant stray (taken in a week before she ran out and got pregnant) in labor. At 7:07am, she delivered the first baby perfectly fine. The following kittens arrived in the same manner at 9:26,10:41,and 11:26am. Though Kiki (the queen) appeared tired with the fourth kitten, she has been taking care of all of them well. After she gave birth to the fourth kitten, on three separate occasions I thought I felt a kitten kicking inside of her. It has been five hours since the birth of baby 4, and she is not having any more visible contractions. Her breathing, behavior, and everything are all normal for her. She's her regular lovely self and as happy as ever. How long should I wait before calling the vet if I believe she still has another kitten left to deliver? I've heard that it can take up to 36 hours. What should I watch for? I want the best for our little purr machine Kiki and all of her babies. She will be fixed as soon as the kittens are weaned and the kittens to good homes that will hopefully have them fixed as well.
