I don't know if this is the right place to post this, so sorry if it isn't. I only made an account to make this post because I'm concerned about our pregnant cat. She may be having some issues, not entirely sure. Not to say I'm super experienced or anything, but I've dealt with about three litters before this and I've never seen this before.
I believe her water broke, that was night before yesterday. At around ten tonight, it will have been two days since her water broke. She seems to be bleeding back there, and she does groom occasionally, but isn't doing the best job of keeping herself completely clean. She doesn't appear to be in labor, she isn't having any contractions and doesn't appear to think anything is wrong. We have some relaxing music on for her, and she has just been lying in her nest, knitting and purring. She comes out occasionally for attention or to get some water before going back in. She doesn't seem to be uncomfortable at all, and if it weren't for the bloody discharge, I wouldn't think anything was wrong.
The kittens are visibly squirming like crazy and have been since her water broke, so I know they're still alive (or some of them, anyway) and that she must be close to having them. I have no idea when she got knocked-up because it was completely by accident, I am not a breeder. We've made multiple attempts to get her fixed, but the vets around here are constantly booked. I just noticed her belly getting particularly swollen and figured she must be pregnant, so we started caring for her as such.
I don't know if this is normal, or if she's going to be ok, or what. We can't get her to a vet because we have no money and the next paycheck is taking its sweet, sweet, SWEET time to show up. As I said, she's having no contractions and isn't straining at all, so I don't think there's a kitten stuck in the birth canal or anything like that. She doesn't appear to be in any pain at all and seems completely comfortable. I'm used to just caring for the cat and helping her out until she wanders off to her nest and has kittens, so I don't know what's going on. I don't know if I should be concerned, because she doesn't seem to be at all.
