The Onyx SagaWell, you know how I took in a lovely little pregnant B&W female yesterday? I wasn't very happy with her today and wanted our own vet to check her over, as she hissed whenever I touched her tummy, wasn't as big as she should have been for being 8 weeks pregnant (as the other vets she came from said) and also her nipples were not prominent. So I took her down this afternoon, and left her there un til the vet could give her a check over. They've just called me back to say that she is being kept in for a few days as they have sent bloods off, and they don't think she is pregnant at all, they think she is blocked with fecal matter  Which would explain the hissing. poor baby. If this is the case she won't be coming to me but will stay at the vets as there is another pregnant female due to be brought in in the next day or two. I will let you know how things go. Just can't understand a vet making a mistake like that!!

I know that early pregnancy can be confused with the presence of hard faeces but at nearly full term?!! How painful for the poor little girl! Our vets are always quite hesitant to diagnose a pregnancy without performing an ultrasound. Hope she does ok. Please keep us updates, if you can. |

Poor girl! Seems very strange a vet could mistake it for advanced pregnancy; how lucky your instincts told you something was wrong and got her to the vet! Well done, you! |

Yes indeed - she's a lucky little puss and I do hope she's OK when she gets herself cleared out. Poor sweetheart. |

Big hugs to little Onyx and well done to you Alex for spotting that something was amiss. I hope all ends up well for the little one. |

TBH I was wondering at first whether I was overeracting as she was the first 'pregnant' cat I had had, but nothing I had ever heard of said anything about hissing every time her belly was touched. Any any pregnant cat I had known had big teats ready for feeding! |
