How long did your cat go?

Olive is at day 61 of her pregnancy. I know the average is 63 days but I was just wondering how long other people's cats went.

All my cats are fosters/rescues so I have no idea of the mate date. Like you said the average is 63 days, but I have read about them going as early as 59 and late as 70...

Here's to a stress=free wait.

Most of my rex females were about 64-65 days. One litter went to 68 days - was getting a bit worried cause she usually was on time

I always took the symptoms and compared them to info I found on the internet and predicted a due date from there. Only once did I guess the exact due date.

i have only ever guessed the excate due date once aswell lol bang on what i put it as 63 days, other times when i have guessed it, it was 64 days 65 days and i cant find my notes on the other ones lol, this time i though she was due nearly 2 weeks ago how wrong was i lol, this one i thought was going to be last week about thursday time (would have been 14 days since kittens started moving) and shes still holding on strong and getting bigger by the day.

I keep a journal of all the cats symptoms as well... then when she delivers I calculate when each symptom appeared. When the next foster comes along I kind of go by the average of the ones before... I am usually pretty close if I go by the time I first start feeling babes move.

Although, a lot of times I dont get the fosters until they are closer to their due date or sometimes the day after they deliver.

PS - I've never guessed an exact date... I'm always too anxious and undershoot it!

Thanks everyone. Today she has pretty much bagged up and has more discharge. She cannot clean her behind at all...It is so dirty I clean it several times a day though. I hope she goes soon.
