If she didn't pass all of the placenta she could develop metritis, which is an infection. If she has a fever, appears lethargic or stops nursing her kittens she will need to be taken to a vet. Have you seen this article? Post-birth Complications In Cats [A Comprehensive Guide] - TheCatSite

I'm sorry to hear you're in such a desperate situation. You seem very responsible for your age, I'm glad your pets have got you to look out for their well being, even if your parents won't do. So, you have 14 cats and kittens as well as 2 dogs? Are any of them spayed or neutered? As I'm sure...

It's quite normal for the mother to take a break between kittens. As long as she isn't in active; labour, panting, straining or struggling for extended length of time, there is no need to worry. I have heard of kittens being born a day or two after their siblings. Has she passed all of the...

Is this the same cat that you've posted about in this thread? New Born Kittens are tiny and lethargic It sounds as if you really need to get your pets spayed and neutered. It's not good for them to keep having litters and it must be very upsetting for you to deal with kittens dying. Are you...

I've been gradually easing myself back into longer walks and yoga routines this week. I started with hour walks and 30 minute yoga practices, but yesterday I was feeling much better so did and hour of yoga and then a two hour walk. I found a new trail to explore. There's a huge area of...

Number 1 or Number 8, but I'd want to add The Birthday Party to the mix

@Shehar feral kittens will eat prey that their mothers bring them, but will also continue to nurse from their mothers up until they are around 6 months of age. It is really difficult to provide a correctly balanced diet for growing kittens just by feeding home made or raw food. Even adult cats...

Hi @JenRose No, I'm sorry. That's against our Forum Rules Just one account per member please. :)

I went for a walk for about an hour yesterday. It was sunny, but I wore my thick fleece as I'm determined to try and sweat out this cold. Two 30 minute yoga practices today. Being sick is so frustrating!

Thank you both. :hugs: It's funny, I was just listening to Forest Cat's song before coming onto to TCS and seeing your messages........ :touched:

I'm so sorry to hear this. What an awful shock for you. :hugs: I've lost cats that I was never able to touch too. It doesn't make it any easier, you feel their absence just as keenly. Thank you for giving Willow a loving home and letting her live by her rules for so long

Our exercise motivation thread had slipped down to the 4th page! 😱 I've been very active for the past couple of weeks. My mum came to visit so I took some time off to do a bit of sight seeing with her. I went horse riding on April 23rd, then between the 26th and May 9th I did lots of long...

She was such a lucky girl to end up being adopted by you. She had the kind of home every cat deserves, but many can only dream of. It's obvious that you adored her and that she was given all the love she needed. I've always has a soft spot for ginger cats. I loved seeing all your photos of...

Frank, the tiny one in my avatar, was a bottle baby too. He didn't want to be weaned but he eventually stopped drinking from his bottle when he was about 8 weeks old. I don't think you should try to force her to wean, and you really shouldn't withhold the bottle from her if she's hungry but...
