pregnant cat

[Sarthur2]

Okay. Try to get hold of mom and apply the warm wet compress. She may enjoy it. It usually gives relief. What time is the appointment tomorrow?

 

[kaylynn pryber]

3 it was the earliest they had the o lu opening for tomorrow as well and they only have one vet so don't take walk ins before 2

 

[Sarthur2]

Oh, boy. You'll be feeding the babies until then. Poor mama kitty with her sore nipples. Are they all red, or just the one?

 

[kaylynn pryber]

Their r two like that and both of those r red the other are really pale but a couple of them have sores on them from them nursing

 

[kaylynn pryber]

Either way I will be bottle feeding she has no milk in Amy of the others and barely any in the ones that r swollen

 

[Sarthur2]

Okay. Yep, you're in it for the long haul. Ask if they can give mom something to stimulate milk production once she's better.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

I figured it out momma does not have an infection she is only producing milk in the two teets that the kittens use I think they was hot due to her laying down on her belly they r not hot they r soft and producing milk

 

[Sarthur2]

You can put some olive oil on them to keep them from chapping. Is she nursing her kittens again now?

Do you still plan to take her to the vet to get checked?

 

[kaylynn pryber]

I think she might of just needed a break for a little while

 

[kaylynn pryber]

She is nursing them now and cleaning them I was trying to feed them and she got mad and was trying to take them from me I checked on her the ones that looked swollen I checked and she has no milk in the rest just those two that they nurse on they don't touch the rest of them they have their favorites and I am going to pick up some udder butter tomorrow

 

[Sarthur2]

The Udder Balm will definitely help her out. [emoji]128522[/emoji]

 

[kaylynn pryber]

I'm going to pick her up some cause they r raw I think that's y she didn't want them nursing but they r all curled up asleep right now if they r hard or inflamed or feverish when I wake up in the morning I will take her in

 

[Sarthur2]

I think you should get her looked at by the vet tomorrow regardless since you are going anyway. There seems to be an issue. She could be just sore, or she could need antibiotics. The vet should make that call.

 

[kaylynn pryber]

Both momma and daddy r fine daddy got two shots and has an antibiotic ointment for his eye and its not an infection on momma its just from the kittens suckling on just those two teets

 

[Sarthur2]

Oh, good. I'm glad you took mama too, and there's no mastitis. So just put oil on her nipples if you can.

I'm sure daddy will feel better soon now that he's had treatment. They can visit together again soon! [emoji]128077[/emoji]
