Our new Baby, Two
Last night, Luna, our cat, gave birth. It is the first time that I had a pet cat giving birth so I don't know what to do. My daughter and I were so nervous and excited at the same time because we had been waiting for this moment.
We were about to sleep when I noticed Luna became restless. She won't stop meowing, it keeps walking back and forth. She climbed on my lap and sit, as if she was saying, "I'm in pain, please comfort me. "
When I saw some bloodstains on our bed, I knew then that Luna is about to give birth. So I immediately grab a little basin and some clothes and put Luna inside.
I can see that she is in so much pain because she won't stop meowing. She also wants me to rub her belly and her head. Then she began to push like she was going to poop. I can feel that she was in so much pain and then finally, the first litter came out. I helped her remove the flesh that was covering her litter. But sadly, it was not breathing. I tried to revive it unfortunately, it died. My daughter named the first litter UNO since it came out first.
After 15 to 20 minutes, Luna delivered the second litter. I helped her remove the flesh, we were so happy when it meowed. I cleaned the litter and put it in a piece of cloth. My daughter named her TWO.
The third litter came out right after TWO but it was not breathing and it was not fully formed. My daughter cried again. She named it TRES. I told her it's okay, we have TWO and Luna might have another litter on her belly.
About 10 minutes had passed when the fourth litter came out, but like the other two, it was already dead when it came out. It's name is FOUR. I feel sad about it. 4 litter but only one is alive.
It was exactly 2 am when Luna delivered her 4 litter. I can feel that she was so tired, so was I. I put the dead kittens into a piece of cloth and covered it. I cleaned Luna and let her rest while my daughter was holding Two.
We were so tired but happy that Luna survived giving birth. We now have another baby in our family.

Poor kittens. The house would have been more fun if they came out healthy and have a heart of a fighter. I'm still glad though that Two, made it. ❤
