The motor response of adrenaline on the pregnant cat's uterus is absent forty-eight hours after birth.
Quinine exerts little or no stimulation on the pregnant uterus and it has no action on the involuting uterus.
The cat's uterus is insensitive to morphine, but it is very sensitive to pituitrin in late pregnancy and immediately following parturition.
Ergotamine does not stimulate the pregnant uterus, but abolishes the stimulant action of adrenaline.
