When a cat is about to give birth it has a very noticeable big belly, and you would have to be very unobservant to miss it, and to attribute the cat's ill temper to rabies.

Where should your cat give birth?

A cat should give birth in a quiet area, some place known to the cat. It should be a place where the cat is comfortable, calm and safe. A cat shouldn't give birth in another cats territory. The other cat and/or cats might think that they are trespassing or invading its territory. Another cat might try to hurt the newborn.


If a pregnant cat has rabies will its kittens have rabies if they are taken away from the mother at birth?

This is not certain. It depends on when the mother cat got rabies. If it is still in its early stages, the kittens may not catch it, but eventually the organism that causes rabies will migrate through the placenta and infect the kittens. The organism will, I believe, be passed in mother's milk, so if the kittens nurse, they most likely will become infected.


Will cats hide when they give birth?

Normally. Yes. If you don't provide a secure place for your cat to give birth, the mother cat will find a place to hide. My mother cat gave birth on Father's Day and just before she gave birth she was hunting for a hiding place. It is best to provide a secure place for the mother cat to give birth, which I did and she had 6 beautiful kittens (Manx).


How do you deliver a cat's kittens?

When can a rabies cat infect you. i heard it was only a couple of days. would it be obvious if the cat had it. and also can it be detected with an eye test?

Rabies is transmitted through the salvia. If a cat has rabies, he can infect you with it. If a person is bitten or scratched by a cat with rabies, they have the possibility of getting rabies. An animal with rabies can show several symptoms. It can be disoriented, dumb looking, vicious, tired, foaming at the mouth, and/or unable to swallow. The only way to check for rabies is to send the head of the animal off for brain biopsy. For humans there is no test. If you are bitten or scratched by a rabies animal, go get rabies shots immediately.


Is your cat going to be okay he has not had his rabies shot and you think he has rabies?

no it's dead


Do it gets a risk of rabies of a cat scratch?

It is unlikely. Rabies is caught by the transfer of bodily fluids, and if an infected cat bites you, you may get rabies from his saliva. In order to catch rabies from a cat scratch, the cat must have bodily fluids on his claws, which is unlikely unless his feet are bleeding for some reason. If a cat gets into a fight with a rabid cat, and then scratches you when you try to separate them, it is possible that the rabid cat's blood can get into the scratch.
