Pyewacket gave birth yesterday to 7 kittens. That was a surprise. We expected her to have just 2 or 3. She is a small cat to begin with, and she didn't get that big during her pregnancy.
It started around 9:30 am, and by 11:30, she hadn't delivered so we called the vet. They had us bring her in. It is a good thing too, because one of the kittens was stuck in the birth canal, and she had to have an emergency c-section.
She got to come home that night, but I spent the next few hours bottle feeding the babies as she was not giving milk yet.
It was an exciting, and very tiring event here at Cloverleaf Farm.
