No wonder she is so thin..had the life sucked right out of her!! I am going to get her fixed as soon as I can after she has them!! Not sure that I will keep her...probably will though lol...

Her name was Buffy...we renamed her on the way home after Flower from the TV show Meerkat Manor...our addiction!! Flower the Meerkat is an awesome mommy and our Flower will be too!! I hope lol...

Keep an eye out. The first c-section for me was on a persian cat. She had 7 kittens. She delivered all but the last one. Had her spayed at the same time. Feed her up if she is in such bad health. Make sure she gets plenty of iron. Most unhealthy, under-fed moms are anemic. Liver is a good source. Good luck, Lynn

That is so nice of you!! I couldn't raise kittens (or any animal).. I'd want to keep them all.

Apparently she is two...but who really knows..the lady didnt even know when she was due...so who knows how old she REALLY is..the vet should be able to give me a better idea I would think..

I am sure this will be the hardest thing in the world giving them up!! I hope my friends will all want one so I can watch them grow but I doubt it lol..

You are a wonderful person for taking her home with you

Hi Im so glad you took her in, Im sure she will do fine being its not her first litter. Our cat always loved the dark closets to have her babys in. I would just keep and eye on her, but cats seem to spit them right out. I would give her a little nutrical and add a little kitty food in with her reg food. maybe a little chicken to fatten her up a bit. I would also keep the other cats away from her during birth and after.
