Mochie's Complications From Giving Birth

7/11/25: Last week, this mama kitty gave birth to 3 kittens and then she began continuously contracting, showing signs of distress panting and irritability. This happened on and off for a couple days.We weren’t sure what to do because this was a possible emergency C-section and we just cannot afford that at this time. We authorized her to take the mom cat to one of the best hospitals we work with, Orion Animal Hospital. We thought there were going to be babies left inside but instead, she had a major infection and her temperature of over 106 degrees Farenheit! Her uterus was full of infection and discharge was pouring out of her vulva which is diagnosed as an open Pyometria. We opted to do medications, monitoring, and supportive care. Today, Mochie is doing great and when she is done nursing we will be there to cover her spay surgery. Yesterday her rescuer thanked us for helping save her life. <3
