Thank you for all the incredible education I am receiving! I have been lurking in the background for a few days, trying to digest all the information you are sharing. In a nutshell, my "Sammi" seems to be due any day - I think. Unfortunately I do not know the dates, as it seems my cautions of not letting her outside during her last heat went unheeded (blaming dad and kids) and it wasn't until a few weeks ago that the truth be known to me....ok, off my soapbox, on to bigger things!
Sammi's belly is huge, you really can't tell by this picture, and she will NOT pose for me
Her stomach is "fluttering", no, change that to "rolling" all around!! Very active kits in there! - No discharge, nipples are dry - but not cracked.
I have established an area for her, which she wants NOTHING to do with - we have the convenience of having an attached "in-law" apt which I retreat to nightly! Have moved both her food and litter box from the basement to the apt as well (that's another thing - dh is insisting its ok for her to still roam the basement - an argument I seem to be winning right now - way too much for her to get lost in - and too cold as well)
She is still eating well - sniffs and licks at the KMR - drinking her water ok -
So....I don't know when, but we should be seeing little ones soon!!
I haven't taken her temp - she really enjoys her head to be stroked, but not thrilled when I go below her shoulders - she immediately pulls away and changes her position - I'm sure she's uncomfortable with the little ones in there!
