Can cats stop delivering and then start the next day?

Question

my cat stopped delivering after 3 kittens and she still has at least 2 more to go...but she stopped contracting. is this normal?

Answer 1

Yes i think so , they could have had thier baby's and then had one that was not fully developed so she had it the next day.

Answer 2

A pause of a few hours is normal. She's resting, and may nurse the kittens that are out.

If it's more than 4-6 hours, or if she'shsowing discomfort, or if she has a fever ... get her to a vet.
