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.

Smudge is having her first lot of kittens, she is due around the 22nd of Decemeber!She has a beautiful nature and loves attention (especially from her owner), she will never bite but she does lick peoples hands and fingers alot which we can't seem to break that habit from her, At the moment, she has taken a craving to Rabbit Meat, she will eat heaps of it! her best cat friend will have to be her half brother Napoleon, He came from the first litter of kittens that Smudge's mother had, she came in the 2nd lot! so she doesn't know that he is her half brother but she still loves him to bits!
