I don’t know if my cat is pregnant?!

[Ahmedc159]

My cat Luna is almost 2 years old. She went on heat about 4 weeks ago and now her nipples are pink and swollen and he stomach looks rounded. I cant take her to the vets due to COVID-19. I will attach some pictures but any reply would be much appreciated.

I have four 7 month old kittens that were scheduled for a low cost spay clinic. The day before it was going to happen it was canceled because of the state shutdown. They all showed signs of being in heat. None of them are anymore. All of them are getting plump in the middle. I am about to have a kitten explosion, so are you.

Thanks for your reply. Do the nipples only get like that when pregnant

In spite of Covid-19 shutdowns, none of these cats/kittens would be pregnant if they were kept inside only and away from intact male cats. You can always assume that a non-spayed cat who goes outside and/or resides with intact males is pregnant when the nipples enlarge, pink up, and the belly gets round.

Many vets are doing curbside drop offs. See if they will consider taking your cat in for a spay now, if you don’t want to raise a litter.
