    If the fetus has been exposed for more than 5 minutes and has not been able to give birth, the female cat should be lying on her side, with her left hand against the cat's shoulder, and the right hand holding the fetal part of the cat's first appearance and gently sending it into the pelvic cavity, and then gently turning the fetus and pulling it out. If the birth is carried out in a pet hospital, in addition to simple assistance, you can also use oxytocic drugs or directly help the cat to have a caesarean section. The causes of dystocia in cat mothers are mainly divided into two aspects, one is maternal abnormality, including cat mother disease, pelvic stenosis, etc.; The other is fetal anomalies, including fetal posture, excessive numbers, fetal malformations, etc.

    Only by understanding the causes of dystocia can we provide timely and effective midwifery for cats. <>

    1.Cats rarely have dystocia. Dystocia can occur if the fetus is too large, or if the amount of exercise during pregnancy is too small and the fetus is not in the right position.

    There are several ways to deal with dystocia: if the kitten has two legs exposed, you can apply some grease on the kitten and near the birth canal, such as petroleum jelly, and gently pull the kitten to help the mother cat exert force. If the dystocia has lasted for several hours, the kitten will usually suffocate in the mother's body.

    Another way is to go to the hospital and get an oxytocin injection. * After giving birth to a female cat, pp will still bleed, it doesn't matter. This is normal and can be taken orally 1 to 4 norfloxacin capsules (just one feeding is enough) to avoid inflammation.

    The bleeding will last for about three or four days.

    2.What to do if the female cat has diarrhea and vomiting after giving birth, and does not eat. This is caused by the mother cat licking the poop of the kitten, and the mother cat can be fed lactase raw every day immediately after giving birth, three tablets each time, twice a day, and mixed with rice to feed it.

    If this phenomenon does not occur within three days of giving birth to the female cat, it is generally fine. (But it is also possible that there is feline plague, it is recommended that you should go to the hospital for a fecal test) * When can you bathe the female cat. Do not bathe the female cat for a month before giving birth.

    Do not bathe the female cat until the child is full moon. * How to care for lactating female cats and kittens. Give female cats more high-nutrient and high-protein foods.

    At this time, the female cat is more picky, so try to satisfy her. Kittens don't need human care, just check whether their little belly is bulging every day. Crucian carp soup is a good food for lactation.

    Dear, after the amniotic water breaks more than an hour after the female cat gives birth, the kitten will be in danger of hypoxia suffocation, and the reasons for the inability to give birth at this time may be excessive fetal size, birth canal stenosis, female cat weakness and prostration. At this time, the best thing to do is to go to a pet hospital for professional midwifery as soon as possible, if you are unable to deliver, you may also need to have a caesarean section, otherwise the fetus will be in danger of breaking water, resulting in the adverse consequences of other fetuses not being able to give birth.

    Questions. I don't know if she had a difficult birth.

    Yesterday evening, there was a blood blister at the uterine opening, and it felt like she was relieving the pain for a few hours and then it was better again.

    At 1 o'clock today, blood began to flow from the uterine opening.

    But it still hasn't given birth.

    When the cat has dystocia, it will be brought to the hospital in time, and the doctor will determine the cause of dystocia and help the cat give birth smoothly. There are many reasons for cats to have dystocia, and they are also very common: uterine contractions or cat physical exhaustion, due to too long production time or poor nutrition of female cats, common in this problem, the solution is to give oxytocin to the case of uterine contraction weakness, and the physical strength is insufficient to supplement the cat's physical strength, because the cat is not a singleton animal, the number of litters is more, this problem is relatively common, and the solution is relatively simple.

    Due to the lack of pregnancy or the size of the male cat is too large during breeding, the kitten is larger stuck in the birth canal and causes dystocia, the solution is to help the big cat to produce the kitten, and pay attention to the sterile sterilized gloves for midwifery. If the position of the card is in the pelvis, direct caesarean section is recommended. Cats belong to double uterine animals under normal circumstances to produce a kitten at one time for one side of the uterus, if both sides of the uterus at the same time to produce kittens but only one birth canal, it will cause two kittens to be stuck in the birth canal at the same time, this situation is not helpful, direct caesarean section is a better choice.

    Dystocia caused by positional changes caused by uterine contractions is uterine torsion, which is caused by strong uterine contractions that entangle the normal uterus on both sides or one side of the uterus is turned over will cause dystocia.

    The situation is very critical, and the unborn fetus is removed by direct surgery, and the uterus is removed at the same time to save life. Therefore, it is the best choice to bring the cat to the pet hospital as soon as possible when the cat has dystocia.

    If it is just hair, it may take 24-58 hours to give birth.
