Advice Needed Momo
I'll try to get a better photo, but this is the new Cat Momo she older than she looks, 13. She's got a very big Stomach, and sorta firm. She's only here 24 hours so as soon as I can I'll try to get better photo of her stomach are. The girl that had to give Momo away said she may have a swollen milk duct? I don't know. Could be a problem with mammary gland ? Smam thing ?

I worried when I read about the swollen mammary area, in an unspayed female especially.
That's a definite vet trip for the poor girl.

Yes, I wish they told me about it. It's not like I was going to Examine them and then not take them. Besides, exchanging them outside in a parking lot with a busy highway 20 feet away, I wouldn't think of opening the carrier! I said I would take them, so I would take them, unless one was just hit by a car or something, I would rush it to a Vet. Apparently her parents would Never take those poor Cats to a Vet for anything! That's why at 13 they are still not Spayed !!! Crazy. Now I'm worried one will get out, and all the Work catching 75 to 100 Cats would be destroyed, it would start all over again !

Yeah, reading those posts was upsetting. I felt really bad for the little girl who clearly knew what needed to be done but couldn't/wasn't allowed to do it.
I'm glad you were able to help them. I hope everything works out.
