So, when my cat mama fetch got pregnant, it's the first time I've ever even been around a pregnant cat. From my posts, you know I severely misjudged when she was due.

And then tonight, I picked up Lady, who is Mama Fetch's sister. Ridgid abdomin, noticable nipples, fur groomed away from it... oh, crap.

Pounce was a very busy kitty that week or two.

Long story short, Pounce has been neutered over a week ago, and it looks like I'll be having another batch of kittens any day now.

*puts face in hands*

On the plus side, it does look like I have good homes for more than enough kittens when they're ready to leave.

Oh bless you for taking the cats in!!!

And yes, I think you've learnt your lesson!


And bless you for having enough homes for the kittens!

Make sure they don't leave home until the 2nd vax and also have already been neutered!!!

Good luck!

I think I am lost. If I get this right your mom was prego she had kittens and know one of the kittens are prego.

If so I hoe you did learn that spay/neuter asap because they can get prego really fast.

Not quite
The kittens are about a week and half old


What happened is originally I had six cats. One unaltered male, two unaltered females.

One of the unaltered females (mama fetch) I noticed was pregnant a few weeks ago, she gave birth a week and a half ago. I got the unaltered male (Pounce) neutered as soon as I found out that Mama Fetch was pregnant.

However, I noticed last Friday that Lady is also pregnant, and due any day now.

So basically, BOTH Mama Fetch and Lady got pregnant in the same two week span, before I realized what was happening (believe me, I didn't intend on having kittens, being that I had six cats already).

So, this is like two consequences for the price of one mistake :p. Luckily, I have good homes for almost all of the kittens Mama Fetch has, and leads on more acquaintences that may want a kitten. Any that I don't find homes for, I'm keeping (and getting spayed/neutered as soon as they're old enough. Heh)

oooooooooooooooooo got it now LOL wow that is a teaser on the brain to figure out. I am glad they will have homes.

Also the male can get a female prego up to 1 month after the neuter so you could be waiting a few more days or weeks on kittens

Aw - thanks for getting Pounce neutered - every one helps, you know. I had a feral that I brought home that had 8 kittens!!!! And she's still here (spayed). Let me or GayeF or TNR1 or anyone else know if you have any questions - I'm a pregnant cat & kitten buddy - & Gaye & Katie have loads of wisdom. (Of course, it looks like you're an old pro now, LOL.)

it does look like u learned ur lesson
but its good that u got the male fixed, just be sure to keep him away from the females for at least a month because after getting fixed the males can hold sperm for up to a month i do believe so u dont want mama fetch getting preggy again
but I am glad that most of the kittens already have homes ready for when they are ready to go from mama fetchs group
but congrats on more kittens
