Hi All,

About 5 weeks ago my 18 month old female cat gave birth to 4 kittens, everything was fine and dandy up until a couple of days ago, when we we came down to the kitchen in the morning, and found the back half of one of the kittens in the middle of the floor, and the mother was chewing on the head!

We are absolutely distraught about this, and are desperate to know if anyone can tell us what happened? Why would the mother kill her kitten? Or is it possible another cat came in and did it?

Please help, the vet we took her too straight after has no idea about what could of happened!

Thanks in advance.

-Matt-
