    My cat has had three kittens and her and the three kittens are doing fine but how do I know if she is going ot have more kittens or if she is done? She has just started bleeding a little bit from her vag area.

    How long ago did she have the last kitten?

    Can you scoop them up and take them safely to a vet to check her out?

    Yes, it might take her as long as 24 hours to finish giving birth. Make sure she is comfortable and not stressed. No loud noises or unusual activity.

    Does her abdomen feel soft?

    Does she seem relaxed?

    Make sure she has food and clean water nearby in case she gets hungry and thirsty.

    And please get her spayed before her next heat so she doesn't have more kittens. There are far too many homeless cats in the world.

    Cats can stop labor if they don't feel safe or comfortable giving birth. If she seems comfortable and isn't in any distress or contracting, then just let her be. If there's any more kittens, then she'll probably have them within the next 24 hours.

    Just keep an eye on her and the babies. Make sure she seems comfortable and the babies are eating and moving around like they should be. If this is her first litter, then keep an eye on her and make sure she's being a good mom and taking care of them the way she should.
