cat labor and pre labor

Question
Hi
We have a cat and are pretty sure she will deliver soon. She is on her 65th day
about to be on the 66th and her "water" broke (if thats what it was) at about
12:00 today. It looked like clearish yellowish water, all over her and the bed
as well! Now it is 11:00 at night, she is just resting, still eating a bit and
nesting.
She is hiding under the bed and continues to go to the bathroom where her
litter box is but does not have any bowel movements. Mostly she just hides
under the bed, but is not panting or anything. Do you think delivery for her is
soon? Oh, and her breasts are FILLED with milk, very much so.
Thank you!

Answer
CeCe she is definitely on the way
Watch her carefully
If she starts to deliver you may have to encourage her by manipulating her tummy but very gently
Gently push the babies towards her uterus
Once they start help her clean the babies as soon as they appear and if they are not breathing then just rub their tummies gently to encourage breathing
Don't hold the kittens away from mum too long, so as soon as they are ok put them back with mum
Good luck
