Matters needing attention in the delivery of female cats

1, shortly after the kitten is born, the mother cat will exert her strength after taking a break. It may take a few minutes or 20 minutes for the placenta to come out. Be sure to throw it away, or the mother cat will eat it.

2, eating it may cause diarrhea, which may be the protective instinct of cats. In the wild, the placenta will attract attacks from other animals, but you just don't pay attention. Even if the cat eats the placenta, don't worry too much. Sometimes, the placenta comes out after several kittens come out.

In ten minutes, the second kitten will be born. If there are several kittens, the delivery process of the female cat will be several hours or less. If the mother cat keeps pushing hard, it means that there is still a kitten in her stomach. You can help her touch her stomach and touch it from top to bottom, which can help her give birth faster.

Cats need more nutrition in the diet after delivery, so as to ensure that the mother cat has enough milk to raise kittens.
