omg I can't even begin to imagine having nine or even more little ones running around the house. winter had 7 in her first litter and that was really hard. Litter box trining 7 was hard I can't even begin to imagine more than that. I hope everything goes really smooth for her. I am sending good vibes your way. Your vet bill was really cheap. I pay 42.50 for the exam and they gave me a discount on the x-ray at 60.00 when i took winter in. who still has not had any babies so i guess I will be taking her back in tomorrow or saturday. please keep us updated on skittles. i am glad to hear she is eating a better now as she is going to need her strength to deliver all those babies.

When was her last xray and did you see skeletons on it..
I'm sorry, but this cracked me up.
Anyway, I certainly hope all goes well..what will be will be!!!
Good luck to you and Skittles, and please let us know!
her x-ray was 2 weeks ago today and yes there were skelatons. i called the vet on monday and he said we should not wait any longer than today. two days ago she found a new spot and today i gave the cats some wet food and some dry and she never game running out and I found her in her new spot and she was meowing pretty good for a few minutes. I think I will check on her soon. Not sure if she really is in labor but would like to see how she is doing as she has been in that spot since 11:30 and has not come out for anything. before she went into her spot she kept going ion the litter box so i think her labor is starting or at least I hope so for her sake.

Skittles is doing the litter thing also but vet said she has no bladder controll all the babies make her pee
I don't know if this happens in cats, but maybe the babies are "dropping" a bit so there's more room for her tummy. I remember it well with my pregnancies. Your stomach feels like it's in your mouth. Ick! Crossing fingers and toes for Skittles!

Yes they do drop and she has. He told me that and it could be why today she is eating a little. I was also able to see her babies are nearing the canal
Wow! 9 or more kittens... POOR Skittles
I hope it goes ok..... but wow that is a big litter.

If ya see how big she is you will see she is packed.
i'm glad to hear she's eaten some...you might try chicken baby food - soft, squishy - lots of food value in an easier to digest, more appetizing form.

She wont eat it. Sort of like she knows it is human food. She wont even eat off my plate or the counters and she sits on it alot while I cook.
Bless her, 9 kittens is going to be hard work. You seem to be taking good care of her, just keep trying with the food thing and best of luck with the labour. Will you be able to call the vet if it's during the night and something goes wrong?

Yep.. He said to call 24/7 if I need him.
i am really glad to hear she is eating. I am sure she does not have much room in there for her bladder to expand. poor thing. I remeber going 2 weeks past my own due date and I thought I was gonna die or cut the baby out myself. LOL good luck to you and skittles.
