As time goes by, more and more people choose to keep pets. Especially cats, they are quiet, lazy and cute, and are very popular among people. However, in their pet care, they encounter some difficult problems from time to time. For example, what should I do if my mother cat’s amniotic fluid is broken and she has not given birth? The pregnancy period of cats is about 60-67 days. Although the pregnancy period of cats is very short, breaking water before delivery is an important signal. The rupture of the amniotic fluid of the female cat is the arrival of the baby, but over time, if the mother of the cat has not started giving birth, then it may face great health risks.
Here are some measures to deal with the cat's mother's amniotic fluid breaking and not giving birth: 1. Determine whether it is necessary to wait or urgent medical treatment. If the water breaks out at the beginning, but the baby still does not come, it is mainly because the baby may be an ectopic pregnancy. In this case, inflammation around the female cat's uterus can also prolong the labor process. If the mother cat does not show any other abnormal symptoms, you can wait for a while to check if the baby appears in two to three hours. However, if there is no progress in blisters for more than 12 hours after the water breaks, you need to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. 2. Create a quiet environment During the pregnancy of a female cat, it needs a quiet and comfortable environment to raise the next generation. So, when you find that the female cat amniotic fluid is broken but still not produced, create a quiet environment around it, turn off the noise source and lighten the light source. In this state of depression and relaxation, the female cat can focus on production to the greatest extent. 3. Give the female cat enough space. The female cat needs to have enough space during childbirth, so that the cat mother can easily change her posture. When the mother cat's amniotic fluid breaks out without any progress, you can find a spacious space for the female cat to move freely. 4. Absorb amniotic fluid If you find that the female cat's amniotic fluid has been broken and never grown, then you need to prepare a towel or tissue to remove the amniotic fluid from your mother's mouth and nose at any time. If time goes on for too long, amniotic fluid can be infected and may have serious consequences for the female cat and newborns. 5. Make sure the female cat has enough water and food. When waiting for the mother cat to give birth, be sure to provide the female cat with sufficient water and food so that she can maintain strong physical strength during delivery. Provide more protein-containing foods to female cats, such as chicken, sliced meat or fish.
In short, when you find that the female cat has broken amniotic fluid, don't just wait for something to happen. The waiting time depends on the situation. If the baby on your hand has not arrived yet, don't let go of any pain and contact the veterinarian directly to make sure the female cat and uterus are not harmed. Fortunately, in most cases, new changes occur soon after the amniotic fluid ruptures!
