    Pregnant cat. Would like experienced input on potential due date.

    During my crazy morning I managed to forget to say she had them in my post first this morning. My thoughts were flooded with too much as I didn't expect it and suddenly had too many questions. She showed no signs before I went to bed so I had assumed I had a bit longer. I did not.

    Well. No real signs yesterday. Woke to 3 kittens. Seems she handled everything on her own. She ate everything, chewed all cords, and cleaned them up on her own.I'm assuming she is done. All I was needed for was a quick box/bedding swap and room service. The box had to be swapped so it couldn't...

    A few quick questions if anyone has a moment. How long should I expect labor to last? Should I expect pauses between kittens? Could breaks be minutes? Hours? What would be the best signal to her being finished? Does anyone have any "cheap" litter box ideas? Ideally I'd like something large...

    Thank you! The dog does a good job of separation himself, he understood her first swat at him and decided he would be more careful, but those brief moments in passing seem to make her mad. I've tried to keep them more separated but she is making that difficult. She loves to look out the door...

    Another question. Does anyone have opinions on clay litters? Are they all basically the same? I read sometimes kittens may try to eat a bit of litter while learning and clumping litter could cause a blockage. I figured I have a little time to switch litters for momma and I would assume kittens...

    Thank you for replying. She has maybe a dime or nickle sized furless area around her nipples as far as I can tell. She tends to get up for head rubs as soon as I'm near enough that she knows I'm close, so It's been hard to check too much. I managed a semi good feel earlier and I could feel 2...

    I have been considering it but wasn't sure how accurate it would be and knowing she came to me pregnant I know she has to be in the last third of pregnancy if 9 weeks is the typical length for cats. I also wasn't sure the stress of a trip out would be worth it if there was nothing wrong other...

    I will try to give a full outline as best i can remember, although it may not be completely accurate since I'm trying to go off memory. I'm not sure it would help anyone help me with guessing a date but I'd like to hope. Keep in mind I've been careful to avoid irritating her as she is newer to...

    Congratulations. She's a beautiful momma. I've read stuff saying you can feel kittens a week or 2 before they are due but I gave been confused a bit as my cat is small but has obvious movement. Could she just have a small litter? I have no idea of average litter sizes.

    Ok. Thank you. I was assuming it would be soon since I've seen movement for over a week. The only thing I'm sure of is she is at least 5 weeks and I see kittens moving. Your cat looked very large. How many kittens did she have?

    These may not be the best pics and quality is less than idea. She is not huge by any means. Just obviously pregnant with the kitten movement. The one lying down was the 19th standing was the 16th.

    Pregnant cat. Would like experienced input on potential due date.

    Thank you for replying. I've been assuming she would be due in the near future. Other than being very round in the middle and the obvious kitten movement she shows no signs of being pregnant. She runs around the house wildly in the middle of the night, plays with toys almost every time we try to...

    I can't edit my original post but I would like to add that I believe she is right at 8 weeks pregnant after discussing it with the previous owner but they were not 100% sure of her last heat cycle.

    Pregnant cat. Would like experienced input on potential due date.

    Hi everyone and thanks for taking time to look at my post. My main question is can anyone tell me what they personally experienced with cat pregnancies as far as the timeline of events and when movement was first seen, NOT felt? I find a lot of "general" advise but since I'm trying to judge from...
