~64-67 days is their pregnancy. Sounds like he is gonna have the babies soon; the waiting game. Get a box ready for her with clean towels and blankies. Some where safe, quiet and dark at home. Feed kitten food as well, momma needs all the nutritions. Also continue feeding kitten food until she stop nursing. Taking her to the vet as well is best, they can do radiology to see how many babies we have.

Best of luck :) and CONGRATES on being a gma :) and to momma kitty of course

She has a box in there aswell but won't go in it she's a very fusy cat lol she's had a scan and they can see 4 kittens so far x

Oh yay!! Definitely exciting. I guess since shes not interested in kitten food can just have it available or try wet food? If i was u (from presonal experience 8 yrs ago) get a kitten bottle JUST in case mama refuse to feed baby but cross my fingers she won't. And she'll be a fine mama

Awe! We would love to see a picture of momma! Are you able to get mom spayed after this litter? If you share your city, state we would be happy to find a low cost clinic for you!

It could still be a few days, but she's close. The hard belly is normal! :)

The mucus plug can be lost up to a week before labor, and not all cats get milk before delivery.

Hang in there! :)

The babies will probably be coming soon (like some other people said) if your kitty's tummy is hard. Again, like other people said, get a box with blankets/towels in it that's in a dark and quiet place in the house. She'll feel safer there. Also, if you have a closet in your home, put the box in there. :)

I found this article online that might interest you. (LINK: Signs Before a Pregnant Cat Delivers | Cuteness) She might be going into labor! What my going off is from the article so to learn more, read it.

Thank you so much I have read it and learn quite a bit thank you, I'm just new to all this and don't want anything to be wrong with her bless her, I was worried about her not producing milk yet but she's restless I am gunna be sleeping in the same room as her now till the kittens come so she's not on her own through the night, during the day I put my little girls monitor in the spear room where she's away from all noices and away from my little girl and the dog with a big huge box and everything in there I hope she's going to be okay, I will keep you up dated aswell
