Hi there
I have a cat who is about 11 months old, Toby. whom I fully intended to have spayed at the end of the month when the local low cost place did their spring spay and nueter program. Well I never noticed her in heat (no rolling,no calling ect), at all and since she's already an indoor/outdoor cat I never thought much about letting her out like usual.
I noticed about 3 weeks or so ago that she was developing a nice little round tummy, which I dismissed as to her eating like a horse like she has since she was a kitten. But it's only her belly, not the rest of her body, and recently she's developed a "sway" when she walks.
her nipples aren't what you'd call "pink" but they do seem larger than they should be.
I also have two 4 month old(ish) kittens that my cat found (yes they literally followed her home from somewhere) last fall around october some time.
Well my cat has been letting them suckle on her lately as well, and the problem is I don't feel any "babies" nor see any movement, what just feels like belly. but over the last couple days she's gone off the food but is otherwise active, she plays (but has become very guarded of her belly) and uses the litterbox normally, and still likes to go in and out when the weather is nice.
I was wondering if she could be experiencing some sort of false pregnancy or if this sounds like the real deal?
thanks!
