That's what I keep asking my pregnant foster cat.
The woman from the clinic said she came in as a stray around March 12 or 15 (I can't remember) and the vet felt the kittens. I read somewhere that they have to be at least 20 days pregnant for the vet to be able to feel them.
So I picked a Feb date somewhere towards the end (24th maybe) and put it in the feline pregnancy calendar. It said she was due yesterday. I realize that there is a lot of guesswork going on but she doesn't look or act like it's an imminent event.
She is still eating, I think. (my fat cat keeps sneaking into her room and eating the kitten food--just what she needs
) She did throw up her breakfast this morning. She's active and playful. She'd be running back and forth across my house with 1 of my cats if I let her. She has shown no interest in "nesting". Her milk has not yet come in. No excessive grooming of particular body parts.
What is the time frame for those things? Will the milk definitely come in before she delivers? Will there come a time when she definitely will stop eating? I'm afraid that I'm going to look in on her at some point and SURPRISE we've got kittens.
