I'm concerned the breeder sold a pregnant cat, and hasn't given you the support you needed.

And yes i agree you have been very unlucky. But don't blame yourself.

Oh im so sorry about your girl and babies, dont be to hard on yourself, its not your fault, and may your luck change for the better soon, x

Well to be fair, I'm not a novice breeder - just a rusty one. I have had more litters than I can count - 70 cats registered under my prefix for a start and then there were some that weren't registered because they didn't make it, or were non-pedigrees. I had an almost total wipe-out of my breeding lines from FIP 8 years ago and only recently decided to start again. This was the first litter from one of the new cats, but I am probably at least as experienced as the person I bought them from. it's just a rotten start, that's all.

Vicky is very bright this morning, we brought her into the office where we have some caged rodents and she was very interested in them. I just wish I knew what the danger period is.

Sorry i thought you hadn't had much experience. Just bad luck then.

Liz, sorry to say it like this but given what your girl is going thru do you not think it's a bad idea to have her around rodents,given that her immune system is extremely vulnerable right nowThis girl has just been thru an absolute nightmare and still has some way to go.No disrespect to you Liz-but this was the previous owners mistake at which this girl has now paid a high price and of course your having to foot the bill financially and emotionally-i would be having a few chosen stern words with whomever you aqquired this gal from-you yourself must be very upset to say the least-prayers will be said that she first and foremost makes a great recovery and thank god you now have her.

Glad she is ok. Though personally I would have had her spayed. I think she's endured enough.

Liz-i'm not having a "Go" atyou coz your heads probably all over the place right now and sometimes in situations your not always thinking straight,but is it possible for you to confine your girl her own private recovery place-because as you say neither you or your vet can say how/why this happened and you don't know what this girl may have brought with her and it could pass over to your other cats-unless the previous owner can help shed some light on the matter

What has the previous owner said?

Liz ? was the breeder aware the queen was in kitten when she parted with her
