Arghh, another drop off. In labour? update. help now please!

[taraann81]

There is not alot of blood. The kittens keep coming out back legs first and there is no sack. the first one was hanging out of her wiggling in up to its waist. I stopped her and laid her down and it came out the rest of the way with no sack on its head or anything. She is REALLY meowing is that normal?

No that meowing excessivly and hard is not normal, something is going on in there that shouldnt, babys coming out butt first isnt normal either, poor cat,

check her eyes how dialated are they?
does she feel feverish? ears will be hot hot. not normal cat temperature.

No there are no emerg clinics and I live in a very small town, 1 vet within a half hrs drive so I think she thinks she can be lazy. Plus I don't have a car here today it is in the shop and the hubby has the other at work. I'm going to check if it is still attached if so I will cut it and ill be right back

OK>

no, really meowing is not normal, normally they aare quiet. Unless she is just stressed from the new place. Sometimes they get up and move around to try and wiggle the baby out, so maybe you should let her, unless she tries to take off. There also should not be that much blood, I dont think.

But she may be OK if it is from the placentas detatching early.

Also, if she is not licking the babies and feeding them yet, you should keep them warm and maybe dry them off. If they are extra small you may have to be prepared to baby them a bit after the crisis is over.

Thats what I am thinking , and I pray the plecentas come out on their own later, I am wondering though if there even is any plecentas, this is strange to say the least , usually the plecenta is birthed a few minutes after the kitten is born.
I dont like the fact the babys are coming out backward either , thats definately not normal.

 

[gypsy2621]

am hoping the delay in post is the vet finally called.

I am having panic attacks here.

 

[warmfuzzies]

Me too. I have never seen one retain placentas before.

 

[taraann81]

Okay at least one placenta was delivered. along with a dead kitten. I didn't even try to revive it it is even smaller than the other ones and is so squishy almost like it was malformed and has no bones inits legs, I'm going to ceck again be right back
