Questions
Hello all..
Well this is it... Misha is 64 days pregnant and her habbits are changing the past couple of days. She is more quiet, doesn't seem to know exactly what she wants.. doesn't go downstairs so much (so I put a litter box upstairs for her)... She is seeking for my presence a lot. It feels like the babies are playing football in the belly, at times. I took her to the vet two days ago because I was worried about her ears. Turned out it might be the collar that was annoying her on the back of her ears sorta. (she might be more sensitive to things lately)... But the vet checked her while we were there of course, and everything is going good, Misha is healthy, belly seems healthy. We are hoping for a safe and healthy delivery. Today, Misha has been jumping more often than usual in her box. She also hesitated in front of her food, and turned to water a couple of times. However, she ate on a regular basis all day. So here's my first question. I read a lot that mommy cats will stop eating 12 to 24 hours prior labor and delivery. Does that necessarily happens all the time? Misha is giving signs of labor approaching but she is still eating... what should I understand from it? Second question is about what to have handy for the upcoming birth. So far I have : - Emergency vet number and phone at hand - Misha's box is ready (has been for a while) - Clean and soft cloths, second box with layers of sheets, heating pad (well covered to avoid overheating) for the case I would have to help and/or take newborns out of the way until mommy cat is ready to feed them. I would like to know if I forgot anything? Any advice / reminder will be appreciated Thanks in advance for your help. Mia and Misha |
