AboutAli Expertise I cannot offer medical advice, after all, I am not a veterinarian! I can help you introduce your resident cat to your new feline friend. I can offer suggestions on dealing with common behavioral issues. If you are wondering how to choose the best food to feed your feline friend I would recommend that you do your own research. Things aren't always as they seem when it comes to the pet food industry, and doing your own research allows you to be sure you are providing the best nutrition possible your cat. I can help you understand your cat's basic needs so that you can meet them. Cats must have interaction and stimulation. Being able to train your cat means finding out what motivates them. Cats all vary in personality, energy level and intelligence just as people do. An intelligent, high energy cat with a mischievous personality must be kept occupied or they will make their own fun even if you aren't fond of their choice of entertainment. I have fostered several cats and kittens. I have experience in dealing with some special needs cats including helping to regain the trust of abused and abandoned cats. I have rescued a number of strays and I can offer tips on how to trap, neuter, vaccinate and release cats in feral colonies and rehabilitate strays to find them loving forever homes. Currently I own 3 cats ranging in age from 3 to 9 years of age. My oldest cat has ongoing kidney issues so I`m willing to offer limited suggestions on this topic. For behavioral issues that I lack experience in I am willing to consult the staff at my family veterinary clinic, however I am unable to provide medical advice so if you have a cat that is ill/injured my advice is always the same: get prompt medical treatment administered by a qualified vet.
Experience I have fostered feral and stray cats, rehabilitated and homed the cats that most people recommended euthanasia for. I am the proud pet guardian of three wonderful cats. I am willing to make an effort to do the research and ask questions because I care enough to find solutions to behavioral problems rather than giving up.
Question my friends cat went in labor three days ago and the first day she had one still born kitten and then on the second day she had three more kittens two still born and i gave one CPR and it is still alive but i had to pull two of them out cuz she is having them breach and cant push them out but then on the third day she had another and i know this can not be good for her because she is going to get an infection from it all but i would like to hear someones point of view on this problem please get back to me asap sincerely Amelia
Answer Amelia,
I am extremely concerned about the health of the mother cat. Normally I recommend that if a mother cat hasn't produced kittens on her own after an hour of pushing that she be taken to the vet to be evaluated. This cat's life is in immediate danger. She may have already developed a serious infection from having been in labor for so long and possibly still having deceased kittens decomposing in her uterus. Internal damage is also a big possibility due to the fact that you mention that you pulled a couple of kittens being born breach out. Most cats are okay delivering breach kittens without help or with very gentle traction timed with contractions. The mother cat should be taken to the nearest vet clinic immediately to have the best chance of saving her life. I would highly recommend that in the event that the vets must perform a c-section in order to remove deceased/decaying kittens and save mom's life that she be spayed at the same time. Given the seriousness of this situation it is quite possible that you may have to bottle feed any surviving kittens and if you need to do so contact me again and I will give detailed instructions on how you can care for a newborn kitten. I hope that you have found this information helpful. If you have any further questions, concerns or you would simply like to send an update or photos my way, please don't hesitate to contact me again.
