hi took my cat to vets on sat he said she might be pregnant but couldnt feel them think she might have two weeks to go shes got lumps on her sides which are firm last night she got behind some draws was looking everywhere for her her teets are really pink and one really furm am worried about her giving birth and also will she need extra milk and where to get it from also do i need disinfectant read this on internet any advise would be good thanks

she dosent need milk its a mith animals need milk to produce milk she should do everything herself but just keep and eye on her, i recently talkd a friend through the birth of her kits and basicaly she dident have to touch them except getting one to atch on which wouldent apart from that unless shes strugeling please leave her to it herselfxgood luckx

What the heck do you pay a vet for if they haven't already told you all of this??!

I have no experience of cat births or breeding cats so will leave it to others to help you but I'm disgusted that your vet has seemingly dropped that bombshell on you and let you leave without knowing what to do!

thats very true and how was this vet anyway?i mean if shes only got 2 weeks to go, the vet should have known for deffinte if she was pregnant or should have at leasthad a scan

hi thanks for replys the vet said he could nt feel anything but yesterday i did and my daughter too as for scan he said it was £60 and did nt want me to pay that out im sure shes pregnant now just keep watching her shes sleeping alot and still eating from what i ve read they stop eating 24 hrs before someones already pm d me asking for a kitten long way to go yet as have to keep them 3 months let you no how we get on my cats name is twinkle

Best not to give her milk really unless its cat milk and I still wouldn't give her extra, if she is pregnant she will need extra food though, try to give her the best quality kitten food that you can and plenty as she will need the calories for the kittens and milk production.
Sorry I do not know enough to help about the birth part, I have seen 2 lots of kittens born in the past and it was fairly quick so as others have said just watch that she isn't struggling away for too long.

its 7 or 8 weeks hun you keep them buy all means keep them 3 months if you want but thats general age range just not to young
