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.

I love sitting on anyone's lap who sits on my chair, I am like a furball and will not move even when you try to shake me off to stand up haha. My favourite passtime is KILLING, i have a huge playground in the country and bring home rabbits, field mice, shrews, big birds and small birds, anything that moves really, my owner calls me a murdering mentalist!!! I take the mentalism after her haha
