Kittens and Birth Infections – Pet tip 241
When kittens are born they are extra small and fragile. This increases their potential of becoming ill or getting an infection. Infections in newborn kittens are quite serious as their bodies are small and they have not built up adequate immunity against many diseases or potential infections that may harm them. This article will focus on three infections that can affect newborn kittens; umbilical infections, toxic milk syndrome and septicemia.
When a female cat (aka a queen) gives birth, she will bite open the amniotic sac that surrounds the kitten. She will then chew through the umbilical cord of the kitten. Normally there are no problems.

Last year, april 2003, my owner just didn't want me anymore and I was very sickly by then, too. I was given to a friend who had a sister who cared. Eight months later, I now have only one tooth left and hopefully having my last treatment for a pseudomona in my nose. I mostly sleep and at my age I am allowed to.
