Why does a cat die in its first child
Abnormal state occurs at birth, which is congenital abnormality, most of which are caused by genetic problems. Congenital abnormalities in the central nervous system, cardiovascular system, and respiratory system often cause young cats to die during childbirth or within 2 weeks.
Some drugs and chemical substances can cause teratopathy and cause congenital abnormalities in young cats to die prematurely. Therefore, during the pregnancy of the female cat, any drugs and chemical substances should be avoided.
If the female cat is fed inappropriate food, it is likely that weak or diseased cats will be born. The reasons for the newborn cats are malnutrition including: serious maternal malnutrition and lack of appropriate maternal blood supply during the fetus.
If a kitten is not weighted at birth, it will cause a higher mortality rate, and there are many reasons for premature birth.
The so-called trauma mostly refers to dysfunction, eating habits, or bad behaviors of female cats. Most eating habits occur in neurotic or highly sensitive female cats. It is quite common for female cats to eat sick newborn cats. Such eating behavior is to avoid infection of healthy cats and reduce unnecessary care and breast milk consumption.
According to statistics, kittens survived the highest during the fifth delivery period. In the first and fifth delivery period, kittens survived the lowest. The survival rate of small cats born to medium-sized female cats is higher than that of large or small female cats, and the lowest premature death rate when only 5 are available.
The process of pregnancy is always difficult. Because the female cat at home does not exercise frequently during pregnancy, there are more likely to be difficult labor. Kittens who can grow up safely are lucky.
