For some families who love Siamese cats, they hope that the more Siamese cats there are, the more lively they will be. Under normal circumstances, their own Siamese cats reproduce through pregnancy and childbirth. In fact, there are certain risks when Siamese cats give birth, and dystocia may occur. Not only Siamese cat litters, but also Siamese female cats are at certain risks. We must take precautions when giving birth to Siamese cats. Understand, today the editor will popularize science on how to deal with Siamese cat dystocia and the knowledge related to its dystocia, let’s take a look together!

What should I do if my Siamese cat has dystocia?

1. Cesarean section and midwifery

When assisting Siamese cats with caesarean section and assisted delivery, if the Siamese cat fetus cannot be delivered without surgery if the uterus is twisted, the cervix is ​​atresia, the female cat’s pelvic cavity is narrow, deformed, or the uterus is ruptured, caesarean section can be used. However, if a Siamese female cat is critically ill and cannot give birth to a fetus, surgery is not suitable and non-surgical delivery methods should be used as much as possible.

2. Lying on your back in Baoding

The Siamese cat lies on its back with its head and limbs fixed. Taking the last 2nd nipple as the midpoint, make an incision forward and backward along the abdominal midline. Generally, 15-20ml of 0.5% Novocaine is used to infiltrate the incision area for anesthesia. Surgery: Incise the skin and subcutaneous tissue, abdominal wall muscles and peritoneum of the Siamese cat, pull out one side of the uterine horn, incise the uterus 4 to 6cm at the greater curvature, and pull out the fetus together with the afterbirth; then pull out the opposite side The uterine horns pull out the fetus together with the afterbirth in turn. Suture the uterus, peritoneum and abdominal wall layers.

3. Massage the abdomen

Help Siamese cats massage their abdominal areas. Overweight, lack of exercise, too many fetuses, etc. may cause the uterus to relax, causing weak contractions and dystocia. Use the palm of your hand to follow the frequency of the sow’s abdominal contractions and press the abdominal wall, from light to weight to encourage it to strengthen contraction and produce a Siamese cat fetus.

4. Medicinal midwifery

After massaging the abdominal wall of the Siamese cat for more than 30 minutes, but the contractions are still weak and difficult to deliver, when the Siamese cat mother cat gives birth to a fetus, 5 to 10 IU of posterior pituitary hormone and 0.5 to 1 mg of diethylstilbestrol are subcutaneously injected to promote the contraction of uterine smooth muscle. The cervix opens and the fetus can be delivered smoothly.

5. Traction the fetus

For Siamese cat fetuses that have been exposed for more than 5 minutes and still fail to deliver, the female Siamese cat should be placed horizontally, with the left hand against the cat's shoulder, the right hand holding the exposed part of the fetus and gently pushing it into the pelvic cavity, and then gently Gently turn the fetus and pull it out.

6. Rib rescue during stillbirth and dystocia

If you insert your fingers into the birth canal of a Siamese cat and touch the fetus' eyeballs but they don't move, there's no sucking reflex when you put your fingers into the mouth or no contraction when you put your fingers into the anus, and there's dirty red fishy secretions in the vagina, it's generally natural to place the Siamese cat in a horizontal position. Lie on the ground, use a rubber tube as thick as your little finger to enter the cervix through the vagina, and connect the external rubber tube to a funnel or 100ml syringe. Inject 2% ~ 5% salt solution and add 0.2 ~ 0.5g chlorhexidine to the solution from the vagina of the Siamese cat female catHousehold discharge is generally about 500 to 800ml, and dead Siamese cat fetuses can pass out on their own within 5 hours. Hypertonic saline forms a hypertonic environment in the cat's uterus, preventing the absorption of uterine contents. Chlorhexidine sterilizes and prevents endometritis. A large amount of solution has a lubricating effect and can promote uterine contraction, so that the fetus can be delivered normally.
