Hello everyone. i am new here and was after a little bit of help.
i went on holiday for 3 weeks and came back 2 weeks ago (my neighbours were feeding the cats) anyway... when i got back i noticed that Gismo's tummy was getting big and her nipples her big and pink.
so i gathered she was pregnant.. i have been able to feel them move for about a week now and when i put my head on her tummy (gently of course) i can hear a lot of squirming going on in there!
my question is. now i have felt them moving when will they be here? i want to make sure i am here for her incase anything goes wrong and i need to call a vet.
well i took her to the vet and now i am even more confused!
when i first got her out the box he said "oh yes well she is definatley pregnant she is very big" but then after he examined her (well poked and prodded her for ages) he wasn't sure! he said he cant feel any kittens!
he said he is 90% sure she is but can not be sure until she has an x ray which i have to have next week! but he said she is so big that you would expect her to drop any day, but because he cant feel any kittens it might be something wrong with her!
when i held her gently i felt spmething moving inside so showed the vet and he said he could feel something but was still not sure! he said if there is only one in there it would be very hard to find it (her mum only had one kitten - her)
so i guess i will have to wait until next week. but is it safe for an x ray? i know humans cant have x rays if they are pregnant.
sorry to ramble on but the vet has worried me now. she is very fat so if she is pregnant when will she have them?
thank you
emma
