Question
Hi, Last year my persain cat had a litter, which had to be delivered my emergancy C-section which found that she had a twisted uterus. 1 kitten died and 2 lived, would it be safe for her to have another Litter this year?
Thank you
Hi Jason
A twisted Uterus is not a pleasant thought and could have been dangerous for the queen
I would suggest that she is prone to this condition happening again. I would suggest that you consider very carefully about using her again as a queen. The next time could kill her I am sure you would not want that to happen at all.
