My pregnant cat is scared of the chandelier

[Mrs.Foxx]

I got this cat just almost a month ago and she so happens to be pregnant. So I set up a spot for her inside her own room and I tried picking her up and bringing her out of the room into the living room so she could look around the house more. But I noticed she would freak out and attack us then run back under my bed. I tried having light on and off but no matter what if she sees it she freaks out. I don’t know what to do.

I haven't had time to read through these but cats being scared of ceiling lights and fans have been discussed here on TCS. There might be insight in the threads as to why a cat might be scared and how to get the cat to mostly ignore the fan or light.

Are you sure she is scared of the chandelier, or just fearful of being placed in a different room? Most of the time, it is recommended to let a cat venture to other locations in the house when they are ready to do so on their own. Under the circumstances with her being pregnant, that might apply to her even more so - especially if she is close to delivering. A lot of cats are more timid/needy when pregnant, and that might even be more intense when they are just trying to acclimate to a new home.

Since she is pregnant I would not want her wandering around the house. You want a safe enclosed space, like the room she currently is in to have her babies and not in a spot where you can’t monitor her and them. So I would just keep her door shut until she has her babies and seems ready to have some time away from them.

Within the room I would put a large box on its side so she has what feels like a sheltered place to have her babies. And cover the bed with something waterproof just in case she decides to have her kittens there.
