Does the baby look fully developed? Hair on its legs?

 

[Furballsmom]

It can take a while for any more babies to come out

 

[lutece]

I'm sorry that the baby didn't make it. Don't feel bad, sometimes a baby is stillborn and there is nothing you can do, even when you try to revive it. It sounds like she did not have trouble pushing the baby out, which is good. Assuming there are more babies, the others will probably go more easily. She may want to rest a bit between babies, which is fine.

 

[Ninigirl]

Yeah it’s fully developed but it didn’t make it , the mom is so sad I can tell she is just cuddling with the baby , do you think this will be her only baby ? Or will she have more ? & it’s okay thank you guys for all your help

 

[Ninigirl]

How do I know if she is going to have more ?

 

[Ninigirl]

She’s sleeping , but she’s breathing really fast

 

[lutece]

How do I know if she is going to have more ?

It's not really possible to know whether there are more without an x-ray or ultrasound. It is fine for her to rest for a long time between kittens. Try not to worry. Maybe get some rest yourself!

 

[Ninigirl]

Okay thank you

One of the few things that might help, and I don't know if it will but try playing some low volume classical harp music, it's known to relax cats

 

[Ninigirl]

Okay I will

I want to hope this is red colored discharges, containing just some blood and mostly its water.
This is common.

Real blood we dont want to see, not more than a few drops perhaps.
With that much, and her beginning to be hissy and aggressive, we may presume her prelabor has started.
Prelabor may be quite long, even over 24 hours - often shorter.
But the full pushing labor is almost always shorter than with human women. Shouldnt be more than 40 minutes.

Has it it calm? no other animals or small kids to disturb her? Such can too cause they become aggressive...

My cats is preganant and I think she’s due to give birth but all last night she was dripping some kind of blood from her vagina, idk what to do I don’t have money for a vet and I tried to call one just to see if they could help over the phone and they couldn’t someone help !

Stillbore are sometimes possible to revive if they arent damaged or visibly premature.
Massaging and warming up. Trying to get fluids out. Breathing in verrry gently...

If a kitten is attached to placenta and momma doesnt take care pf placenta you wait some minutes till you are sure no more blood is flowing and you cut it off. Not too near the baby. Blunt scissors are good or your own nails.

If momma is ok you can calmly wait on furrher development.

 

[Ninigirl]

She still hasn’t had anymore babies , maybe that’s it , but she’s good now , she keeps thinking the other cats are her kids and she keeps grabbing them by the neck I feel so bad , idk how to help her . She’s eating and drinking though

 

[StefanZ]

Later on, if she doenst get more own kittens, you can if you so wish, perhaps let her be a foster momma. As she has maternity feeling fully developed.

 

[Ninigirl]

How do I do that ? Does it cost money ?
