I have a pregnant cat "11 months old", the taming happened around 14 February and now she's heavily pregnant
I would like to know the time to expect the kittens, all the signs and changes in behavior plz
I think she's in her last week of pregnancy

A tip is; has she dropped? Ie suddenly seems less pregnant. If so, its just a couple of days left.
Its not fire sure, not all cats drop visibly, but its the common....

Otherwise, its not easy to predict the exact day, even if you know when she mated. Its essentially a waiting game... Just to prepare as well you can (we have lotsa of articles and older treads), and wait...

Take some pleasantly smelling things from your mamma´s room to yours?
Try to play more with her, so she fancies your room too?

My cat has been pregnant for 9 weeks now, there's no sings of milk producing and today all of sudden she threw out
Can somebody tell me what to expect as she's at her 9th week?

Do you know exactly when she got pregnant or are you guessing she's about 9 weeks?

9 weeks (63 days) is an average. That means the gestation for some cats may be a few days shorter and for others a few days longer. Not all cats produce milk before delivering. I wouldn't be concerned if she goes another 4 or 5 days or maybe even a little longer.

She was mating at 14 February, it's 63 days now but no signs

I've seen different statistics, but many say that the gestation period can be anywhere from 57 days to 69 days. I've even heard of cats going 75 days, but that's very unusual.

She's heavily pregnant and for sure is about to give birth ... it's just there's no sings and that worries me

Is your vet still seeing pets when it's not an emergency?

I'm living in a town where literally every ghost shop is closed, I have no choice right now but to watch over her and wishing she'll be good
cause there's no vet availble

I can't really help you, either, except to say hang in there. :goldstar: My only experience has been with fostering cats whose actual breeding date was unknown. I had one that I swore was going to deliver any minute. After two weeks of sleeping on the floor with her she finally delivered 3 healthy babies. :dunno:

She may be in labor and you just can't see it yet. Both vomiting and diarrhea are fairly common in early labor.

The picture is too out of focus to see much, but it looks like it could be her mucus plug.
