The cat lies on the belly of a pregnant woman, tramples you with his paws, why is this a sign during pregnancy, what does this mean in an adult after surgery

What to do with a cat during pregnancy

Folk signs about cats and pregnant women appeared as a result of fear and the desire to figure everything out.
People at all times have tried not only to notice what happened and compare events, but also tried to find a logical explanation for everything. During pregnancy, contact with animals is not recommended. This is explained not only by the magical effect on the fetus, but also by the infection of the woman. Helminths and other parasites live in every animal, but it is better for humans to prevent infection by them. And cats have been endowed with magical properties since the times of Ancient Egypt. They are guides to the other world. By communicating with restless souls, cats can provoke one of them to “inhabit” the baby’s body. As a result of the information received, the question arises: what should the owner do if the pet was already in the house? Putting cats outside is not humane, and finding good homes for them is problematic. In addition, animals become practically members of the family, and it can be difficult to part with them. In this case, it is necessary to show the animal to a veterinarian. After the examination, the pet can be left. If he is found to have parasites, then an appropriate course of getting rid of them should be carried out, as prescribed by a doctor.

Important! The treatment should be carried out by one of the pregnant woman’s relatives; it is better for her not to touch the cat!

And yet, if it is possible to place your pet with relatives during pregnancy and the first year of the child’s life, this will be the best solution. Nowadays, there are hotels for animals, where for a small fee they will be looked after, fed, and played with. In this situation, the woman must independently decide whether to leave the pet in the house or not.

Cat ladies, maybe you know why the cat always lies down on...

We had a cat in our parents' house, she really loved to lie on her dad's chest. And my father kept running to doctors and it seemed to him that he had stomach problems. The cat climbed onto his father’s chest on the left side, completely unexpectedly the father died of an instant heart attack, then an autopsy showed that there were two micro-infarctions on his legs, he didn’t even suspect it

there is such a thing. They feel something.

By the way, an increase in temperature from a cat may well create unnecessary stress on the heart and cause a heart attack. Checkmate, believers.

My husband joked in response to this topic - it smells so much like fish, so the cat lies down there! Author, maybe you really have some kind of microflora disorder? Have you noticed any unusual discharge with an odor?

my cat is 7 and a half years old. She generally changes her sleeping places very often. but when he sleeps with me or my husband, or when we are both in bed, he usually lies near his head or between us. but when I’m alone, she sleeps next to the pillow, and at night sometimes she lies down on my stomach, because I like to curl up on my side. Sometimes he sleeps in his back, in the lumbar region. but rarely. I’m almost never on my feet, only maybe during the day if I’m having a siesta. and not for long. But when I’m sick, it doesn’t cure anything, it doesn’t even work. but if she’s in a bad mood, depressed, then she tries to cheer her up. smells it. Here.

A healthy woman's vagina NEVER smells fishy. As soon as this smell appears, feel free to go to the doctor to treat the infection - the first sign of an STD.

Author, you are lucky - you got a therapy cat, because they don’t cure everything. Definitely, the cat feels some changes and climbs into exactly that place. It wouldn't hurt to get examined. I have several cats and only one is a treatment one, she is already 11-12 years old, an amazing animal, she always heals everyone, if my daughter has a fever, she lies down along her entire body and sleeps with her until the fever subsides, my husband had a back pain - she is there, but The strangest thing is that she always slept with me in the abdomen, it seemed to me that she was warming up, but alas, it turned out that I had oncology. After the operation, when I was discharged, one night I woke up, and she was lying right on the seam, and I didn’t even feel how she climbed in, and she weighs 6 kg. I must also say this thing: when I started to get sick - she also started to get sick, suddenly she started dripping blood (I saw it in the pot), they treated her for a long time, did an ultrasound, it turned out there was a tumor on the uterus, she did not give birth, the veterinarian suggested surgery. We consulted with other vets and with the owners of cats who had their uterus removed, and decided not to do this, but to treat them with medications. They treated her for a long time, everything was successful, I’m glad that they didn’t let her be cut, she understood everything when they took her for injections, she endured everything, she’s smart.

Oncology with already bleeding was treated with injections. monsters.

Interesting: 6 obstetric weeks of pregnancy

Why does she need a uterus, by the way? to rot in a year?

Do you know anything about empty heats? or heresy a la the cat should be yaya, will you start talking?

Signs about cats and pregnancy

Many people are interested in knowing why a cat lies on the stomach of a pregnant woman.
There are several explanations for this. If your pet has always liked to settle on his stomach or chest, and this behavior is normal for him, then there is nothing wrong with that. It’s worse if the cat begins to avoid his habit and avoids the pregnant woman himself. This may mean that they tried to jinx the unborn child or cast a spell on his mother. There are other superstitions, for example:

To avoid problems with the baby’s nervous system, his mother should not touch the cat with her foot, much less kick it.
The same applies to animal abuse. If it lives in the house, then it needs to be treated with even more affection and care.
If a tricolor kitten asks to come into your home during pregnancy, this is a good sign. Finding such a kitten on the street and taking it into the house is also a harbinger of easy gestation and childbirth without problems.
If the situation is the opposite and the tricolor pet avoids the expectant mother or even runs away from home, the baby will not survive.
If your pet begins to fit into a pre-prepared crib, it means that the baby will be born any day now.
Another danger may be the cat's jealousy. Some pets can choke a newborn.

The suffocation of infants by cats can be explained differently: the pet wants to warm the child, lies on him, resulting in suffocation. In this regard, the cat should not be allowed into the children's room, and the baby should not be left unattended.

If a cat lies on the pregnant belly, the sign indicates minor health problems. Cats are well known for their ability to heal people. The purring of cats creates vibrations of a certain frequency, which can put some body functions in order. Scientists from the Institute of Animal Communication in North Carolina (USA), as a result of numerous studies, have concluded that a cat’s purring promotes bone healing, has a beneficial effect on the nervous system, and relieves stress. If cats crush a person with their paws, it is compared to an acupuncture session. Due to this, non-superstitious people can let their pet sit on their lap and enjoy its therapy. Some expectant mothers find this an excellent way to relax after a hard day.

Symptoms of animal discomfort

A cat has a belly button: do cats have it, why not?

In itself, if a cat’s belly hangs in the area of its hind legs, it does not become a sign of some kind of illness. On the other hand, you should think about it if the fat tail causes discomfort to the animal.

The presence of discomfort is usually accompanied by the following symptoms:

It hurts the animal if you touch its stomach. The cat begins to meow pitifully and tries with all his might to avoid contact with human hands;
There are a number of movement restrictions. The cat cannot or does not even try to jump somewhere, refuses to play or run;
The pet's belly has a significant external difference. Red or blue spots appear;
hair loss is observed. Noticeable bald spots appear on the stomach;
refusal to eat, weight loss of the animal, vomiting, diarrhea;
general deterioration in the condition and health of the pet.

Beliefs associated with cats

A good sign is a pregnant cat that asks to come into your home.
This indicates an imminent addition to the family of those who will shelter her. If a woman cannot get pregnant for a long time, then the couple needs to pick up a female kitten on the street. When the animal grows up and becomes pregnant, then the woman can expect to conceive. A cat on a pregnant woman’s belly is a sign that the baby will be born wrapped in an umbilical cord. If it lies on the breast of the expectant mother, there will be little milk and the woman should prepare for artificial feeding. If you ask to be breastfed after giving birth, it is better not to let your pet come to you, as there is a risk that the milk will spoil.

Signs about cats and pregnancy are divided into the color of the animal:

tricolor - for easy childbirth;
spotted kitten - the child will have birthmarks;
striped - the baby will be calm;
a black cat will become a talisman for your home and family.

Cats do not pose any danger to the mother and baby if they undergo a veterinary examination, preventive treatment against worms, and have timely vaccinations. All of the above applies to any pet, because the main thing is health.

Signs - true and absurd

A number of signs are associated with the behavior of a cat during the owner’s pregnancy:

The animal, lying on its “pregnant” belly, protects the unborn baby from illness and lulls it to sleep

If the expectant mother has toxicosis, the cat, like a heating pad, will calm her down too

Probably, the sign that a cat on the stomach can harm the baby has a logical basis simply in the fact that during pregnancy it is recommended not to put pressure on the stomach

When a cat clings to its owner's chest, it demonstrates its affection and asks for reciprocal affection.

To prevent the cat from scratching the expectant mother, you can put veterinary silicone caps on her claws

Why cats are dangerous for pregnant women - scientific version

Despite ancient beliefs, a pregnant woman needs to remember one thing: the main thing is her health and the health of her baby. This or that sign does not always mean a threat to the child. It should be understood that our ancestors, in those distant times, did not know what allergies were and associated a woman’s painful condition with the presence of a cat of a certain color or with its behavioral habits.

The same applies to an infection called toxoplasmosis. Cats are its carriers. Toxoplasmosis is dangerous because it is asymptomatic, reducing immunity. The infection enters the body of the fetus or newborn child and begins to multiply in it imperceptibly. If this infection is present, any disease is very difficult to treat. Based on these data, the expectant mother should listen to the doctor’s recommendations, and also take into account all the folk signs that advise avoiding close contact with animals, or better yet, temporarily limiting their presence in the house.

Considering the topic from all sides, we can conclude that signs about cats and pregnancy vary. Most likely, it depends on people's beliefs and their perception of animals. A superstitious person will not be stopped by his attachment to a pet; it will be important for him to preserve the health of the newborn by any means. People who cannot imagine their life without a cat will enjoy its warmth on their stomach and healing purring. Here, as they say, to each his own.

Breed characteristics

There are a number of breeds for which a hanging belly in a cat is absolutely normal. According to statistics, similar features are found in representatives of those breeds whose genes contain wild and aboriginal ancestors.

The cat's stomach is swollen: causes of bloating and treatment

Most often, the fat tail of a cat is pronounced in the following breeds:

sphinx;
Cornish Rex;
Scottish Straight;
Bengali;
savannah;
British;
Chayzy.

For your information! Due to the lack of fur, the appearance of a saggy tummy on the Sphynx becomes very noticeable. It often appears after the decision is made to castrate the animal. This is just a feature of the breed, and does not mean at all that the animal is overeating or sick.

Hanging skin in Sphynx cats

Scottish Straights

If the belly is small, there is no swelling, and the representative of the Scottish Straight feels well, there is no need to worry and panic. If a straight-eared cat has a fat tail on its belly after giving birth or sterilization, this is also normal.

Bengal cats

Bengal cats are beautiful, graceful and resemble domestic leopards. They rarely suffer from obesity, but, nevertheless, they also have a small fat tail. Most often, a male cat's belly hangs after he reaches a certain age.

Savannah

Savannah is a rather elegant and graceful cat, but even she can develop a fat tail over time.

When a cat realizes that its owner is pregnant

Cats do not outwardly notice that the owner’s position has changed. They can feel that a woman is pregnant even before she herself finds out about her situation. If, after the owner had unprotected sexual intercourse, the cat suddenly began to pay special attention to her stomach, it is worth doing a pregnancy test. Very often, the cat begins to communicate with the baby early, from the first days of his development.

What serves as a signal for the animal is unknown. It is difficult to determine whether cats feel that a person has undergone hormonal changes, record even minor deviations from their usual behavior, or directly feel a new life. However, most owners can say one thing for sure: even if a pregnant woman comes to visit, the cat, no matter how unsociable, appears and tries to settle on its lap and lie near its stomach.

The cat jumped on his stomach during pregnancy

Do not worry everything will be fine! I myself recently hit my tummy, only on the door frame. I almost cried too. The girls tell the truth that there is a lot of water there, he feels good, he swims there and the blows are softened. For example: my mother, when I was B., was skiing and fell on her stomach (she was 24 weeks old). It's okay - I was born so healthy and even pretty..)))

Author: lenyshka 14.6.2007, 15:37

I overturned my car a month ago. She was driving herself. I was, of course, in a state of shock, but I don’t remember hitting my stomach. Well, if only a little, yes

Cat pregnancy

During this period, the fruits reach 8 cm in length.
Their weight is approximately 100 grams. every. Their bodies are covered with short fur. Motor activity appears, so the cat owner can observe wave-like vibrations in the abdomen of his pet (especially in a lying position). There is swelling of the mammary glands and the appearance of discharge from the vulva. During this period, it is difficult for the cat to walk; she lies down most of the day. The animal's appetite decreases sharply.

Precursors of childbirth in cats appear 3-5 days before the significant event. During this period, the animal tries to stay as close to the owner as possible, looks for a secluded place for itself, and shows noticeable anxiety. Lambing in a cat Precursors of childbirth in cats: restlessness, the desire to follow the owner literally on the heels, the appearance of mucous discharge from the “loop”. To alleviate your pet’s condition, try to prepare a secluded and cozy “nest” for her in advance. This could be an ordinary box covered with a clean diaper, a soft house, etc. It is also important to provide assistance to the cat during childbirth.

Ideally, a veterinarian should be present during this process. But with preliminary preparation, you can cope with this task yourself. Before your cat goes into labor, prepare the following tools: • clean scissors and nylon thread for tying the umbilical cord in kittens; • surgical gloves; • dry and clean cloth; • small syringe; • antiseptic agents, such as iodine, brilliant green, etc.

If you are about to deliver a British cat with a narrow pelvis or other problems, make an appointment with the veterinarian in advance, keep his phone number handy for advice or an emergency call. If these conditions are met, lambing will proceed without complications.

So, how does birth work in cats? The first stage - contractions, accompanied by bloody vaginal discharge, can last up to 12 hours. At this time, the animal rushes about, screams unnaturally, and tries to stay closer to the owner. Your task is to assist the cat during childbirth. Stroke and massage her belly, talk in a calm, quiet voice, calming the animal.

Childbirth in a cat lasts a maximum of 24 hours, usually 7-8 hours. The fewer kittens, the faster the lambing will be. It’s not difficult to remember how cat birth goes. Babies emerge from the birth canal head first. The mother must bite through the amniotic sac and then gnaw the umbilical cord. If kittens appear one after another, your task is to assist the cat during childbirth. Cut the bubble with scissors and gently wipe the baby. Then you need to cut the kittens' umbilical cord to a length of 1.5-2 cm from the baby's tummy.

The umbilical cord is tied with thread and treated with an antiseptic. Excess mucus from the baby's nose and mouth can be removed with a syringe, gently tilting the baby's head down.

If the above steps are performed correctly and there are no pathologies, the cat will give birth quickly and without complications. However, during the first few weeks you need to closely monitor any changes in your pet’s condition or behavior, contacting your veterinarian at the first alarming signs.

Often after giving birth, a cat will experience bleeding for 2-3 weeks. If such discharge is insignificant, your pet’s body temperature is not elevated, and her appetite and behavior are normal, there is no need to panic. Such manifestations are not considered deviations from the norm. If the animal vomits, refuses food, or has diarrhea, urgently take your cat to the doctor or call a specialist to your home!

Urgently! The older child jumped on his stomach!

Girls, help, 13 weeks pregnant. the eldest (2.10) was frolicking on the sofa today, I was lying next to her. My daughter climbed onto the side of the diwata, and either slipped from there, or jumped off unsuccessfully, in short, she landed directly, either with her feet or with her elbows, on my lower abdomen.

I just can't calm down. See the doctor only on Friday. I won't make it. It already seems like something is broken in Maska’s belly:(. There’s just a tiny thing in her belly, and they literally jumped on her from a height of 30 cm. Damn, where was I looking? What should I do, what should I think about.

Your uterus has only just left the pubic bone! Therefore, I think it’s not scary, the main thing is to calm down, don’t be nervous!

There is nothing impossible for you to break there, nature is designed in such a way that the uterus is a rather elastic muscular organ and is also protected by the abdominal muscles, they absorb shock, you are too early for survival, blows in the later stages should be avoided, although it is also impossible to break anything for a child, but it is possible get placental abruption from a very strong blow.

My youngest one also fell on my stomach, although I didn’t have time to close it much and it hit me from the side, but still on the stomach. I’m fine, no consequences, the baby is healthy.

She's protected inside there :) I think everything will be fine with you. If the body is generally healthy, it can withstand very heavy loads. I'm here until 8

Reviews from women

When I was in good shape, the cat would come, lie down on his stomach and purr, and when Lala was very rowdy, he would do the same. I stopped going to bed only when my daughter started kicking the cat: it was already about 8 months.

My cat began to sleep on my stomach at night and rattled like a tractor. I was still wondering what was wrong with him? I've never done this before. Weeks later I saw a positive pregnancy test.

And my cat (1.5 years old) helps me maintain pregnancy: it relieves the tone of the uterus, pain on the sides from the stretching of the uterus, and now pain in the stomach, apparently due to a displacement of the stomach. he just comes at night, lies down on his stomach closer to the area of the sore spot, lies down, maybe purrs, and I stroke him, whispering kind words. the pain and discomfort really go away. For the sake of this effect, I tolerate the weight of the cat.
