Hi ladies,

I'm off shortly to pick her up! She ended up with a c section , oxytocin didnt work and then on exray they found a HUGE kitten! The vets and me on palpation had thought she had at least 3 more inside, but it was actually the skull and pelvis of the giant kitten we were feeling! They found a little one stuck behind him too.

Unfortunatly the retained kittens didnt make it, there must have been some sort of congenital defect, as it is over 11cm long aparently and weighs 228g!!!!!!!!!!!! No wonder the poor girl couldnt part with it!, it was just to big to even move down into the birth canal which is why she wasnt straining or anything! The kitten stuck behind him was alive at birth, but had probably been so weakened by the wait for the birth and being unable to move down the uterine horns, he just passed away on the operating table.

She has been speyed along with the cesar, and has aprently come round from the anaesthetic well and is feeding her two girls. Gutted that we couldnt save the remaining kitten, but then it obviously had problems so it was for the best.

Off to vets now to pick her up!

Yes, if she was going under the knife she may aswell have been speyed at the same time, makes things easier for the future.

She is home now and has just nursed her kittens well and come t me for a cuddle! Its unbelievable the amount of milk she has! as she feeds, the other teats are actually dripping milk, I can honestly say ive never seen that before!

I did see the deceased kittens, the "normal" one was a beautiful little red and whit bi-colour (almost van), and the BIIIGGG kitten was well just monsterous! absoloutly huge, it looked very odd. Tiny dwarfed front legs, cleft palate, big big long body, huge head, and long back legs. I hate to say it but i'm actually relieved he died before birth as i hate making the decision to put down.

Morning ladies!

Well sheebs seems to be a little uncomfortable today (hardly suprising), but has eaten a little scrambled egg. She's nursing her babies well, more frequently but for less time as i think the little claws pull at her sore tummy. The babies have each gained 35g from their birth so doing nicely! I have already got a confirmed home for one, but not for the other... yet! lol

Oh bless her, wow that baby is enormous. I hope she recovers well for you and at least you have two healthy kittens and she is speyed at the same time so once all this is over with you have her all sorted.

Looking forward to seeing kitten pics when they are a bit bigger.

Izzie

Well she has just brought both kittens downstairs, and decided that the place to be is......

The puppys CRATE!!!!!!!!!!`

ARGH! Why do they do these things??

Unfortunatly pup is a terrier - and although he's adapting really really well to the other cats, i certainly dont want him anywhere near tiny kittens. I only had him a few weeks before i found sheba in the skip.

what to do? - will think on it while i do the school run! I have for now zipped her into the crate, to ake sure he is kept out i'll pop him in the kitchen while i do the school run too.
