You could also get thrombocytopenia if you're taking chemotherapy drugs or you're getting radiation treatment on your bone marrow. Drinking a lot of alcohol can also bring on the condition. Thrombocytopenia can also happen if your spleen is enlarged, which can trap platelets so they won't move through your body. In other cases, your body just uses too many platelets, leaving you without enough of them.
Cats are born year round. However, the majority are born in late spring and summer due to warmer weather. A kitten will be born in September. In fact, many kittens will be born in september. However, if you want a kitten by September then you must get a kitten born before September because a kitten should not be taken away from it's mother younger than 7-8 weeks of age. greyfluffykitty Â· 8 years ago.
And litter sizes vary. Cats can have a single kitten or four, five, six or more kittens regardless of whether it is their first time. It is possible they may average 2-3 kittens for a first litter (this is a number I never heard), but you could never count on that. Cat pregnancies are about 65 days long. If you really want to know how many kittens to expect, the vet can take an x-ray around 50 days and count the kittens. This is often a good idea - if she should have trouble during labor it is useful to know whether there are remaining kittens.
