Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2005Sonya Update (still no kittens)
She hadn't exploded into motherhood by this morning, so I had Rob and Mike take her to Doc Stevenson to be examined to make sure she is pregnant and get a guestimate as to when to expect the kittens. She IS very pregnant. Doc Stevenson's female partner checked her out, said that Sonya looks very healthy, palpated the poor kit's tummy, and found....a head. She said the head was about an inch in diameter. She offered to X-ray Sonya to find out how many were sharing living space, but Mike told her no, it would ruin the suspense. Good boy. As to a birth date, the Doc said anytime between the next 48 hours to two weeks. We've had Ms Sonya exactly a month, so She was between 20 and 30 days pregnant when we got her. I'm leaning towards 30 days as I could feel some individual lumps when I checked her tummy shortly after we got her. So, that being said, Sonya will eventually poop those kittens out and put me out of my misery. Its back to being a waiting game. I suspect she's as tired of this as I am, if not more. Pam S. Well at least she seems ok. Poor girl. Let's hope by the end of the week. > She hadn't exploded into motherhood by this morning, so I had Rob and > Mike take her to Doc Stevenson to be examined to make sure she is [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Pam S. > She IS very pregnant.

I hope for both your sakes the end is more like 48 hours rather than two weeks. She must be feeling very uncomfortable! And you must have a pacing track worn out in every rug in your house by this time. Melissa Purrs for the poor mommie to be. Purrs she "poop" those kittens soon. Then you'll have even more mayhem to deal with. Suz Has she picked out a spot to have them yet? Kristi > Has she picked out a spot to have them yet? > > Kristi She spent yesterday and today hiding under the bed (again, we thought she was through this) whenever someone walked into Mandy's room, then trying to escape (new behavior) whenever some one left the room. We think that she wants to explore the house for alternate birthing areas. We don't want to have to worry about her, so am making her stay in Mandy's room.

Don't they take two or three > years? MLB Elephant reproduction and governmental policy formulation are very similar. Both take place at a very high level, the grassroots suffer, and there are no visible results for years. I do have the dubious distinction of having watched an elephant lose his virginity, but that's probably more for rec.pets.elephants.anecdotes. >>>She hadn't exploded into motherhood by this morning, so I had Rob and >>>Mike take her to Doc Stevenson to be examined to make sure she is [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > This is sounding like a reverse Immaculate Conception. A politer way of saying it than Rob was putting it earlier. Lets just say that if she wants to return the sperm, Rob isn't letting the tom into the house.

At every party the gang holds, the girls get together for a special toast: "here's to not being pregnant". Purring very hard for Sonya to pop sooner rahter than later.

Poor girl! I hope she has a smooth labor and delivery and is a good Mom... hugs and purrs, -L.
