still no kittens
12 05 2008I keep taking pictures of Lilu, but none of them succeeds in showing just how golompulous her belly is getting. See?
She spends a lot of time sprawling on the floor like this, and if you look really close, you can see that her eyes aren’t even closed. She’s not sleeping, she’s just lying around waiting for it to be over. She sits oddly, has trouble jumping, falls over while bathing, can’t reach around her belly to scratch her chin, she’s almost wider than she is long at this point, and we keep telling eachother it can’t be much longer, but days drag by and there she is, still pregnant. She weighs a ton, too - she makes almost as much noise clomping down the stairs as Ignatz does.
When, oh when will this madness end?

a, we’d totally take one of them kittens if it were even remotely logistically possible (not to mention legal). we have two of the more useless cats I’ve ever known. but good luck anyway. i hope for her sake it ends soon.
If she doesn’t deliver soon, I think you should get her to the vet. Just a thought.
I do agree with Elem.
It’s not only the pregnancy, it’s this weather which makes all of us breath heavier….
I keep my fingers crossed!
Good luck, grandma!
Poor thing! Reminds me of my own last days of pregnancy. I hope they come soon!
