You need to separate them now. He is confused about her pregnancy hormones.

Has your male been neutered yet?

I think this last article will help you prepare for her delivery:

Could she be in heat again while pregnant? Also the pregnant cats & kitten care forum might know more about this type of behavior:

*Please post cute kitten pictures after she gives birth :)

He can also get her pregnant again very soon after she gives birth so they HAVE to remain separated until this litter is weaned around 12 weeks and she has a number of months to recover from the whole ordeal.

To male cats, pregnancy hormones are the same as heat hormones. He wants to mate with her, which is unhealthy for her now that she is expecting.

Cats are not to be bred more than once per year.

You’ll need to put him in a room with a Feliway plug-in diffuser to calm him down. Breeders generally keep intact males in separate quarters from their pregnant, lactating, and non-pregnant females.

Finding a mentor through a formal breeding organization to assist you would be best.

No you misunderstood my question. When I googled your question I was surprised to learn cats can go into heat while they are pregnant!!!!!!!!! They can carry 2 litters at once!
