So the kittens are 2 weeks old now. Ali's nipples were not really cleared around them very well when the kittens were born, but I started noticing her pulling fur out around them the day they were born. Now, there is quite a clearing around them. LIke at least an inch or 2 in diameter. And it is scabby now. She is making sounds like it hurts when they start nursing. I looked online and i really don't think it's mastitis, as it's not the nipples and its not swollen. It's just the area around the nipples. Can I put anything on it without it hurting the kittens when they nurse? I want to get her feeling better! Anyone deal with this before? And yeah, it's around all nipples. It looks like she just pulled fur out and now its scabbed!
help?
