My pregnant cat had one kitten, still contracting. Is she stuck?

Question

My cat is 2 years old and is pregnant for her first time she has had one kitten and it died...She seems to still be having contractions but it's been hours since she had her first one and shes very attached to me crying lots and I'm not 100 percent sure but I think there is still a baby in there but she wont let anyone but me touch her how do I know for sure if she is going to have another kitten or not.

Since she has been having contractions for a few hours now and has not produced a kitten, it is now time for an intervention by a veterinarian. Please take her to a vet or petER now. The vet will be able to determine whether there is another kitten or more than one, and whether there is a kitten blocking the birth canal. Your cat may need a cesarian section in case the kitten (if there is one) is too big to be born naturally. Please take her to a vet now.
