Watching the Birth of Kittens

[Jason]

I loved watching the birth of cats. I remember even they were covered with goo and then the mom would lick off the newborns.  Anyway, when I was a kid, I eagerly looked around the farm, searching for where the mother cat was having kittens or where she already had them.

I'll hard pass on that, not sure if I can watch a human birth, let alone a cat birth.

I have never seen any animal give birth, I think it would be interesting to watch. But I'll never be able to see it because we always get our animals spayed and neutered.

Could always walk around trying to find a feral cat ready to give birth.

I once watched a cat give birth, it was my friend's family cat when I was younger, it was amazing to see but, as a child, not too pleasant to look at. 

As you get older you understand more though and I feel it becomes less unpleasant to look at and more of looking at it differently.

Nope, it's not something I would want to see at all for any reason whatsoever. The last time I saw a dog giving birth, it had me traumatised for weeks. I can't have myself going through that again.

I am sorry you were traumatized for weeks. It had to be a horrible experience to go through.

I've never seen anything besides cats give birth live, including humans.   Do you see major differences in the birthing of cats vs dogs, for instance?   How about versus other animals?
