Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Cats can delay labor for a maximum of 24 hours. If it has been longer than 24 hours then that constitutes an emergency. If you are concerned about a retained kitten that hasn't been born great than 24 hours after the birth of the last kitten I highly recommend a Vet appointment. They can take an X-ray to confirm she is finished. I wish Chloe the best!

Glad to hear you decided to get yourself a kitty! Some cats take longer to get used to their owners than others. It is great that she gets along with dogs, as so many cats and dogs are not able to functionally coexist. The best think you can do is just give Crystal some time and let her come to you.

In terms of the food, any type of food labeled for cats is OK, with some brands being of higher quality than others.

If there is a radiator or heat vent below the kitchen window, then I would place it there. To the right of the sink would be great, too. Kitties like the heat. My second choice would be the bed room, however she may prefer to lie on the bed anyway and ignore the cat bed there.

This is very concerning. Your cat needs to be seen by a veterinarian today. Please take your kitty to a PetER. Unfortunately cats can actually get very ill when they do not eat, in addition to the disease that actually caused him not eating. So, this is an emergency.

If it has been that long between having the last kitten, and there are still more in the birth canal/visibly moving in the belly, it would be best to seek veterinary care immediately as Midnight may be suffering from dystocia, or have a kitten that is stuck.
