Re: Placentas
I've always let her do it herself, if she hasn't done it then I use scissors to cut the cord.

O yes, I forgot to mention, my most recent lot were born on an armchair. Thanks, Katie dear!

Re: Placentas
Hahaha, Liz, they find some funny places don't they!!
I was told by my vet not to use scissors and always use my nails to break the cord, rubbing thumb & finger together like the mams teeth. Not that I have much in the way of nails, lol

Re: Placentas
eeeee Liz! Shame about your armchair - LOL - did you manage to clean it up afterwards or was it thrown out?

Main thing is that the queen and her kittens were happy, healthy and safe.

Re: Placentas
I cleaned it up - but the odd thing was, there didn't seem to be very much at all to clean up. The armchair is red ....
