A few months ago we found this kitten under a small crack under our house, she was very scared and it took quite a while for her to gain our trust. She is a mostly outdoors cat, and she's very attached to us now.. we had just set up an appt to get her fixed right before I found out she was pregnant. I don't think she's but 6-7 months old, she's very petite. On April 16th I noticed her belly was swollen, checked her nipples and sure enough they were pink... At that point I thought she must be around 4 weeks.. but she was very noticeably swollen. Idk how I didn't notice. Now it's been a little over 2 weeks, so I assume she is a little over 6 weeks.
I cannot feel the babies "Kick" but I feel like i can feel little bubbles or flutters maybe.. almost like when we are pregnant where you can barely feel little kicks, but not large movements.
Anyways, I have two "house boxes" set up for her, I decorated them, I put in matts at the bottom with blankets over it.. and decorated it with nontoxic organic paint. Lol! She of course chose the box I wanted for her kittens to play in when they started walking instead of the beautiful one I spent a lot of time on, but as long as she is happy I am too.
Now my questions are..
1. Could she be farther along than i think?(What's your estimate?)
2. What point in pregnancy do you feel "flutters" NOT "kicks"
3. I have everything I can think of ready for her, but a list would be nice!
4.With her being so young, is there a higher chance for a small litter.. or stillborns?
Thank you all so much, my baby girls name is Sassy!
*Also wanted to add, she was mostly an outside cat but now she is in a lot more.. I plan to bring her in permanently her last two weeks, and keep her inside until the kittens are weaned and she is spayed!!!! At which point I still want to transition her SOMEHOW into mostly indoor
