my cat is due to have babies anytime (i think ) and she is voiding us and also throwing up alot today. it was pretty normal to start but then liquid and now a white foam kinda stuff. she is not leaking any fluid from rear and her nipples dont seem to be any bigger then a few days ago. i am concerned can you help??

Answer by Kate
well this could be hairballs. Vomiting white foam is often a sign of this. She may have been grooming more than normal if she is feeling a little anxious about the birth of her kittens and this would cause a buildup of hair in the throat.

Usually hairballs are easily moved after a few days by the cat. However there are also things you can d to try and help her. Please see my web page about hairballs here

If you feel that it is connected to her pregnancy then contact your vet for more advice.

best wishes Kate
