I'm sure most of us can get hold of Cimicat quickly but you never know what might happen in the middle of the night when vets are closed.

DO NOT BREED OR BUY WHILE SHELTER ANIMALS DIE

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

Raw egg  :sick:
Would always reccomend people who have a pregnant cat in their care to have a tub of replacement milk and equipment in stock, just incase.

It's more for people who hear about people that have kittens and no access to proper things. ie Christine's friend's som recently. Or some of the people on Yahoo answers who have sick cats and no money for vets.

I remember a while ago, someone was asking for an emergency substitute. I thought this might be handy for some people.

3 oz condensed milk (this is the sweet one, not to be confused with evaporated)
3 oz water
4 oz plain yogurt (not low fat)
3 large or 4 small egg yolks - no whites
