I'm an avid cat person and have had as many as 8 cats at a time growing up, BUT, they were always spayed/nuetered so I have NO experience with birthing cats. The past few years I've got interested in Bengals and this new kitty, Mouse, is a pure bred papered, runt, bengal. She was given to me about 4 weeks ago and we soon realized she was pregnant. She is due in about 2 weeks according to the vet. I have given her extra protien and wet food every night (was 3 times a week along with other cats). I am taking her for an xray next Wed so the DR can see if everything looks "okay" as I am worried due to her tiny stature. Anyhow, that is another story and we may end up doing a
c-section cause I am worried about her delivering. If anyone here could please direct me to any good informative books or websites about the care of newborn kittens and even the birthing cause I have no idea what to expect, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks, Woopsydaizy

The best information that you can get is from a Vet that you trust. Momma Cat will do most of the work and will do the tending of the kits as well. Here is a site with lots of information about cats and kittens. I am sure that others will have more sites to give you a lead on. Good luck and let us know how things are going.
