Question:
My neighbors cat is currently nursing a litter of 4, and all still seem satisfied, but her belly has a very hard feeling under the tits, like the milk is caked or something. I never seen this before. Any ideas on what it is, or how to remedy this. The hardness just came up overnight.

Answer:
You are right. This one is mysterious It may or may not have something to do with the pregnancy.

Could it be a hernia or a swelling from some injury that happened overnight.

I'd give it a day or so and see if it goes away. If not then give it a rub and see if the cat reacts in pain. Best solution though is of course a vet visit.

Good luck
