It sounds like this cat needs a c-section. Cats rarely have issues giving birth so there is definitely a problem. More oxytocin is not likely to help. I suggest you call the vet back and take her for surgery. If the vet is not available just keep the cat in a calm, quiet area until you can get to the vet in the morning.
