Then I lined the pan with newspaperss which she promptly shredded up. Then her water broke and it was all wet and nasty ans she was standing up in it . i placed fresh papers in and she did the same thing again. I am thinking newspapers weren't such a good idea but what do you breeders use? I have two that will be coming in heat this month and next so I want to learn from my mistakes with Silk. Thanks
Here's a great site for whelping supplies. I bought a litter box from petsmart for a litter box.
