Can a queen still have more kittens inside her, hours later after delivering a stillborn?

my friends cat had a stillborn late last night, and the next morning she didn't have any more. My friend said that it looked like she may have more, because she is still big, and the belly looks hard (not sure if she felt it or not).My friend also mentioned that she is bleeding a lot from the vaginal area. Is any of this normal. It is also the weekend and we can't get a hold of a vet, and neither of us know anything about queens giving birth. The queen at the moment is in a box in her garage, and my friend mentioned that she's still eating and drinking and is acting normal. is there any concerns here?

Yes she could have more kittens inside. It is very rare for a cat to only have one kitten. She needs immediate attention! She could die and any kittens in her still alive will die. There should be an emergency vet in your area or nearest large city, check the phone book and get her there ASAP!
Reply:If your friends cat will let your friend feel her belly, lightly feel around for any lumps. If you can feel some, there are definitely more kittens! It is very rare for a cat to only have one kitten, so most likely there are more. She should probably be taken to a vet ASAP. Most vets will take her on the grounds that it could very well be an emergency if she has more kittens inside here at this time.

something dosnt seem to be adding up to me.. but if she is eating %26amp; drinking tht is a plus sign, i think defentely get her to a vet A.S.A.P just to be safe.





maybe a VERY light tummy massage? i did this to my kitty durring her pregnancy helped her alot lol, %26amp; also classical music i know tht sounds weird but it works =/





just keep her safe %26amp; happy till tht vet comes :)
Reply:i agree, you need a vet! there's got to be someone available on the weekend, it might be costly but i'm sure that's worth the cat's life!
