hi my mates got a cat whose heavily pregnant she was scanned on 16th november and the vet said she was well into 50+ days but could only see 1 hearbeat and 4 kittens her milk came in on 17th and she was having ripples on her stomache the vet said she was in early labour ,however shes also having a yellowish discharge and has been 4 a week and half her vet said its normal her temp since the 17th has been 37.4-37.9 between those and shes eating again shes spoke to the vet and hes said its normal but all mine have had kittens within couple days maximum of their milk can some1 advise please as her owners worried thanks

any discharge that colour = infection, straight to the vets for anti biotics, heartbeat and 3 dead kittens could be giving her a infection, poor girl

Discharge is not normal, its either infection or amniotic fluid, if thats been coming out for days at least one kitten (if not all) is probably dead. labour is very often a lot longer and harder if the kittens are dead and sometimes the queen can't deliver them at all.

I'd get her to a vet ASAP, she may very well need a C-Section to remove the dead kittens and save her from a long lingering death from infection. Go now, vet charges are significantly cheaper if you go during the day!

just to update u the vet wouldnt see the cat they said it was normal and give her another couple hours they said it 3 days running tho but the good news was despite the vet seeing 4 kittens but only 1 heartbeat 3 kittens were born safely and are gorgeous so was a happy ending thanks for the advice i told her it wasnt normal x

Im shocked at the lack on concern on the vets behalf, discharge = infection and she should have gone to another vet

They look very sweet, what breed are they? 2 look blue one looks brown tabbie??
