She is probably getting close to her labor & delivery time. It could be any day or another week. They tend to get more affectionate and vocal as their time draws near. Do you have a couple of nesting areas set up for her to choose from? Like in your closet and maybe in a laundry room or bathroom with a box or laundry basket big enough for her and the kittens and lined with old towels or blankets? They like a dark, quiet spot that's private, although they also frequently want you near during delivery. Read the links to learn about labor, delivery and newborn kittens, and feel free to ask any questions as they come up. Welcome!
