How to Clear Fluid Out of Newborn Kittens

Hi! I am Dr. Adrienne Mulligan. I am the owner of Camp Verde Veterinary Clinic, and I am here today on behalf of expertvillage.com. I am here to speak to you about breeding cats. If you are having trouble getting the fluid out of the little kitty’s mouth and out of its nostrils, and it is really having some trouble breathing, then your last step is to do the swing technique and this is where you want to hold it firmly in a cloth, and you want to swing it, and just a good swing back between your legs, and several times that way, and a little stronger than what I am doing here, but not so strong that you fling the kitten back behind you and across the room; I have had it happen. So you want to just… start swinging the fluid out of their nostrils, so that is the sort of worst case scenario that you may have to do with these kittens.
