All of Jupiter's kittens have new homes now. This leaves Jupiter still
producing milk.

Her tits are very full, she's not irritable, she seems quite
comfortable...
In "Meet the Parents", Ben Stiller says you can milk anything with
nipples, but please! I'm not up for anything like that!

Does anyone have an idea of how long she will keep producing milk? It
seems like the supply should wane since there is no demand.

Or... What if she begins to whine? What if her titties and nipples
keep getting bigger and harder! Did I home the kittens too soon?
Should I go borrow a kitten back?

Thanks

Barry

Lol, no need
NOOOOOO dont' do that,,you will just make it worse for her!!  thanks,
It will dry up within the week, so don't worry about it. I know that
it might look uncomfortable & probably is if my memory serves me
correctly(personally!), but it is something that nature takes care of.
Whilst she was feeding her kittens, it worked the theory of a tap
basis, the more they wanted, the more that flowed.
You have done her a favour by getting them homed gradually, so now
that she has no more to feed, again, like the tap theory, she has
turned the tap off..so with no more kittens, you are simply watching
the build up in the tap. as long as she doesn't feed any more kittens,
it will be gone in a few days or so. Don't worry most of all!

NNNOOOOOOOOO, don't do that, you will only make it worse.
You were doing the right thing to start with. By allowing  the kittens
to go at intervals, you have helped the tap situation, the more she
feeds them, the more that arrives.
They will dry up in a few days, so  just leave her be for now.
It might be a little uncomfortable, but she will get by & it will go
away & dry up very soon, within days I think

Barry  8 to 12 weeks is the age when you can give a kitten away  most states
that is the law

She should dry up in a week or so. So call your vet now and get her a spay
appointment for next week - perfect timing!!!

See, I'm really going to do it!
Thanks for the encouragement.

Will spaying affect her personality?
The female cat spends at least half the year with her reproductive
tract dormant (cats only cycle Spring and Summer). This means that,
behaviorally speaking, she acts spayed most of the time and no
personality change should be noted. This said, it is important to
realize that a cycling cat can be extremely solicitous of affection.
This kind of playful, flirtatious behavior will stop with spaying.

Well good! I have enough females in my life acting like this
(rolling around on the floor being solicitous)

Jove can just cool her jets!
