Help!

My cat was due to be spayed on wednesday.....shes just had a kitten.

Shes cleaned him all over, removed chord......

there only appears to be one.....


what do I do? Ive filed a box with towels by where she is. But what else does she need?

I think you had best ring the vet and ask him/her. I bet the was the biggest shock you ever had!

As long as she is kept warm, and is taking care of the little mite, she will manage fine, but you do need a dirt tray if you haven't already got one. She shouldn't be going out.

now theres two!!!

What do I do????

The other kitten is in a box with towel cat jumped ot o have other!!!

Keep them in one area/room. Obviously mum cat will not be allowed to go outside until spayed when kittens are weaned (8 weeks ish onward)

Just keep an eye on her, if she gets distressed you will need to take her to the vets.

How old is mum cat?
I would call the vet if I were you, even just to get some adivce and reassurance. I think you'll need to get a few things, but I've never had a cat who's had kittens so I'm not too sure. Do you have a decent set of kitchen scales? You'll need to start weighing the kittens daily to make sure they are gaining weight. Keep them in one room, and of course make sure mum can't get out as she can begin to call again very soon apparently. I think most breeders on the forum say to get some kind of kitten replacement milk just in case mum doesn't feed kittens enough or something goes wrong; I think I may remember Taylorbaby or someone saying Cimicat was the best, although don't quote me on that because I could be wrong. Their will be loads more, but as I say, I have no experience in this sort of thing!


Good luck.

they are both *I think* suckling or attempting to. Mum is licking the newest onr poor mum.

Do they need vets anyway?

Should they be put into my bedroom in the box or left where they are?

Poor poor mum I feel like such a hyprocrite as I'm pro rescue

Ive put some food and abowl of water near mum...litter tray isnt too far away.


What happens next...what do I need to do

Where are they? I would avoid moving them if possible but that can change depending on other pets, children etc.

Seconding weighing with accurate scales now and from now on.

How old is mum cat? Old enough to be spayed before now I presume? Although I'm not judging you, I don't know the situation so know their could be any of number of reasons she hasn't been spayed! Don't panic, hopefully someone experienced will be along to help soon. Does mum seem content enough? If they are both suckling and mum doesn't seem distressed then that's good. I don't know about moving them to your room at this stage so I wouldn't want to say, but I don't think I would without being given the go ahead from somebody who knows a bit more. I'm not sure if you really have to do anything else, but I do think you should just call the vet to see what they say, just so you get a bit of reassurance that everything is ok.
