Need Help With My Pregnant Cat

[jaccim]

Luckily I already have replacement milk etc as runt having difficulty latching on. They were feeding normally off her & I don't know what happened in the 5 minutes & I mean literally 5 minutes I left room. That was about hour ago.

I mean if it was only 1 hour ago she may yet come around.

1. Make sure kittens are warm.  This is priority #1

2. Make sure room is quiet, calm, as comfortable as possible

3. Watch mom carefully to make sure she doesn't try to hurt the kittens

4. If in another few hour she still hasn't returned to them to check on them, get ready to begin hand rearing

I fid everything you said tulosai & luckily it seems it was a 'blip' as she is now back in nest & all 3 kittens suckling. I so panicked!! She was literally trying to rip leg off one kitten. I shall be sleeping on sofa tonight with them just to make sure

I spoke too soon, she doing it again. Keeps taking one kitten out of nest

 

[tulosai]

Is it always the same kitten?

 

[jaccim]

No, at first it was largest but now it's all of them. Make is now in my sons bedroom but she is acting very strangely

Are you sure she is hurting / rejecting them? Is it possible she's just trying to move the nest?

 

[jaccim]

I've tried moving nest to where she is dropping them. But didn't work. She kept taking them to make cat (dad) but now he in my sons bedroom, she won't go near kittens.
