The reasons why the female cat does not give birth even though her belly is still there:

1. The female cat is weak. Cat childbirth requires a large amount of energy. When a cat successfully gives birth to its first two babies, its physical energy has been exhausted, and subsequent childbirths may be difficult to deliver.

2. The female cat has dystocia. It is recommended to take the female cat to the pet hospital in time to seek a professional caesarean section, because the mortality rate of dystocia female cats and fetuses is very high. Only in this way can the mother and fetus be safe.

3. No contractions. The female cat can be injected with oxytocin or taken to a pet hospital for a caesarean section.

4. The fetal position is abnormal and the fetal cranial diameter is too large. If there are still kittens in the mother cat's belly but no longer regenerate, she should be taken to the pet hospital in time. The kittens may suffocate to death at any time if they are not born for more than 12 hours. If there is no heartbeat, they should be taken out by caesarean section in time.

Tip:

At this time, you need to feed the cat some water and food to replenish its strength, and then observe whether the cat can continue to give birth. If it does not give birth for more than 6 hours, comes out, and there is sticky dirt in the vagina, it is best to take the cat to the pet hospital for examination to avoid fetal suffocation and death.
