My roommate and I have been taking care of an outdoor neighbor cat for several months because their house burned down. We fell in love with her, and now they have offered her to us. We don't know much about her medical history. They said she has had three litters, and they sort of unconvincingly said she was spayed. Now, her belly seems to be getting a bit big, and being the queen of worrying, I am wondering if maybe she is pregnant. The reason I am afraid she is pregnant is because the belly is also kind of firm when you touch it. I don't know if there is some easy way to tell the difference between a cat who is getting chubby from eating a bit too much, or a cat who is expecting. Also, I know she has not gotten pregnant for the last year. It seems to me, the chances are she is not pregnant, but I wondered if anyone out there had some insight on the subject.
Thanks...
