My cat just gave birth. Why is she lethargic, bleeding, and in pain?

Question

My cat gave birth yesterday morning, I wasn’t awake to watch any of it and check to make sure everything was going ok. She gave birth to 6 kittens. Now her ears seem a bit hotter, the weather is warm though and she just seems very lethargic. She has been bleeding enough to leave some small spotting. I’m very worried about her and it is late Saturday night She just made a meow, as she is by my bed and it was like a twittering, which could mean she is in pain.

If Elle is still bleeding, seems painful or in distress, or is feverish, I would bring her to your vet ASAP. It is possible she could be having some complications from her labor and requires medical care. Bringing her along with the kittens for an exam can help determine if this is the case and get her feeling better.
