Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Rougr! Yes, if is has been greater than 24 hours since she had a kitten and you think she is still pregnant then she needs to see a Vet. They can do an X-ray to see how many kittens remain and use an ultrasound to check their heart beats to see if they are in distress. She may need a C-section. Good luck!
