Hello there! It sounds like you're taking great care of your pregnant cat. It’s completely natural to have questions during this time. With just one kitten on the way, a situation known as “singleton pregnancy,” it can potentially lead to complications. For example, singleton kittens might be larger than those in larger litters, which can sometimes make natural delivery a bit tricky.
While a C-section isn’t automatically required, it's essential to monitor your cat closely. You should watch for signs of labor difficulty, such as prolonged straining for over an hour without delivering a kitten, extreme lethargy, or distress. If any of these appear, immediate veterinary assistance would be necessary.
At home, ensure she has a quiet, comfortable space to nest, and keep a close eye on her eating and drinking, as nutrition is key right now.
Given the circumstances, it could be beneficial to have a video consult to discuss your cat's condition in more detail and come up with a plan tailored to her needs. This will help ensure both mom and kitten are healthy and safe during delivery. Don’t hesitate to reach out and book a talk with us on Dial A Vet!

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
