We have happy news! Our cat Spooky had a successful birth on August 4th!
Spooky didn't give us the signs she was in labor that the books said she would. Her water broke and a few hours later she had her kittens. She didn't do any meowing or lose her appetite...but at least we got to be there for her.
She gave birth to 3 kittens but sadly the 2nd kitten was stillborn & it had to be a breech delivery too...she had the toughest time with that one, we had to assist her in removing it from the birth canal.
Happily there are 2 beautiful healthy baby kittens! They are mostly black & orange spots with the cutest little white bellies
They are so noisy for being so tiny. Its so adorable! (Pictures coming soon)
Spooky has changed into a totally different cat. She was not affectionate at all before this. She never wanted to be pet or anything. We have never seen her this happy before. Now shes a purring machine! We are so proud of her!
I think we should move Cookie to 9 weeks. Either she is going to have her babies early or the vet misjudged by just a little. I think we will have babies any day now!
Would it be possible to add Tilly to the Kitten watch thread please?
I don't think she's going to be long now, but I can't pinpoint an exact date as she was already pregnant when she came to us
