My cat got out around the middle of March and we're pretty sure she bred with a stray someone dumped in the area. You could smell where they marked all around my house. I saw him sitting outside my house for days meowing for her. Anyways, her nipples are bright pink and she lost hair aound them. She has suddenly become a finicky eatter and will only eat canned food. Her stomach has grown quite a bit and she has become a lot more affectionate. The only thing I'm worried about is I can't feel anything in her stomach. It's so hard that when I press gently it just feels like a huge muscle. I did my research and heard phantom pregnancies are possible. Not really sure what to make of it. She's very possessive of her stomach so I will try to post pictures when I can get them. I put a nesting box with old soft sheets in a quiet corner just in case. I've seen her trying to root around my cupboards and closet as well. All signs point to pregnancy but like I said, no sign at all of movement and I can't feel them. Possibly a small litter? Not sure what to think of it. She also seems to be having trouble with hair balls the last few days as well because she's constantly grooming herself. She's not vomiting or showing any signs of illness. I'm planning on calling the vet tomorrow to get an opinion on it. I thought I would wait it out longer but not much change has happened in the past to weeks.
