Question
my cat just had kittens and she has no milk. They were born about 9 hours ago and haven't eaten yet!! what do I do???
Hi Kelli!
You need to act IMMEDIATELEY! Go to your nearest pet supply store and buy a kitten bottle and some KMR which is kitten milk replacement. Feed those kittens!! I hope it's not too late. They may be too weak to nurse. If they will not nurse, call your Vet right away. They will need to be tube fed. Call your Vet as soon as they open up.
God Bless,
Becky

Expertise
I am not a breeder,so please direct any breeding and/or birthing questions to an "expert" that is. I love all cats but my favorites are the Rex and Siamese. I used to show Cornish Rex as a hobby but have not been able to for a few years. Right now I have three Siamese and one Cornish Rex. As a former veterinarian assistant, I can help you with general healthcare issues. Being a cat owner for years, I will be glad to answer any behaviour and/or nutrition questions too. Please remember, I am NOT a Veterinarian, so if your kitty is seriously ill, please do not hesitate to contact a Vet.
