Please take her to your nearest vet if labour does not progress within the next hour. What she has passed may be a deformed kitten but now that she has started the rest of the litter must follow or she is at severe risk of infection

    She may be aborting her litter or just have expelled the one undeveloped kitten with the others intact. I would wait to see whether she is going to have more kittens and you may also want to take her temperature. If the temperature is high (above 103F) I would take her to the ER. If not and if she is not lethargic or hemorrhaging (losing lots of blood) there is time to take her to a vet tomorrow for an exam.

    I would recomend that you have Ebony checked out by a vet. Either if she had the kitten too early or she was at-term, any other kittens should also be born at the same time. If she doesn't have the other kittens she is at risk of getting very sick. A vet will do an examination and likely an x-ray to see if there are other kittens pregnant. They will be able to tell you if she can have the others on her own or if she needs a c-section.

My pregnant cat is bleeding, hiding, no kittens after 6 hours?
Hi ! She could be having troubles giving birth, kittens could have died and be still in her tummy, does she look like she has given birth and her tummy is not distended anymore ? If so she could have more likely hidden the kittens rather than eaten them.

My pregnant cat bled, now looks not pregnant. Did she eat kittens?
There are several possibilities: She had a miscarriage and the kittens were dead and she cleaned up, ie ate them. Or she had them and hid them. You will know soon, when she disappears once in a while....you may need to follow her secretly to find the babies. third possibilities is that the babies had some defects and she ate them. She will have a discharge for about a week , which should be odorless. If she gets lethargic, stops eating or if the discharge gets smelly she will need to be examined by a vet.

My 8-month-old cat had one kitten and is bleeding. Is this normal?
Blood is not normally seen in the birthing process and usually indicates that there is a complication. While it's possible that she only has one kitten, it's also possible that she has more inside. I recommend taking her to the vet for an evaluation as soon as possible. They can keep things from getting worse and check for any other kittens. I hope that helps and all is well with Baby.

My cat had one dead kitten, still pregnant & bleeding. Is she okay?
It sounds like Callie is no longer showing signs of active labor, and some bloody discharge can be normal for days to weeks following the birth of a litter. It would be unusual however for her to have only one kitten and I would be concerned that there might be other kittens left behind. I would recommend seeing a vet as soon as you can - if there are other kittens that are alive but distressed a c-section might be necessary, and if there are other kittens that have died Callie probably would still need surgery to have them removed.

My cat is bleeding after giving birth to a dead kitten. Is it normal?
You can see some bleeding after giving birth, that is normal, but without seeing her in person, I can't say if it's normal or not for sure I'd be concerned she may have more kittens yet to be born. Have her seen by a vet immediately. As for the milk, yes it's normal to still have milk there.

My cat is bleeding and might be miscarrying. When to go to ER vet?
The bleeding is definitely not normal. I think you should take her to a vet tomorrow for sure. If she starts to act sick at all tonight - not eating, very lethargic, pushing like she is trying to give birth but nothing is coming out, etc then she needs to see a vet tonight.

My pregnant cat is bleeding, weak. Is she miscarrying? What to do?
I'm so sorry that Preciosa is experiencing a miscarriage! Given that she is weak and lethargic, I would have her seen by a vet immediately. She needs veterinary attention to prevent hemorrhage or infection that can result if tissue remains in the uterus.
