WHAT DO YOU NEED FOR THE DELIVERY:
  • list of phone-numbers of veterinarians in case of an emergency, especially during nights and weekends !
  • cardboard boxes for nestling ( no fruit or banana boxes because they've been treated with pesticides) or a self-made nesting box.
  • towels, flannel cloth.
  • hotwater bottles and bags
  • umbilical cord clamp, pair of sharp scissors, desinfectant (70% alcohol or Betadine iodine 10%) 
  • digital scales
  • little nursing bottles with nipples (f.e. Beaphar)
  • kittenmilk: Lactol, K.M.R (Kitten Milk Replacer, at the vet's) or Litterlac 
  • quiet room without hiding places that may prevent you from observing and helping the mother if needed
