Alright so my 10 week old kitten has gained weight but it doesn't seem normal her tummy feels firmer and I can feel something moving. I've had pregnant cats before and their tummys felt just like hers.

Is she pregnant? Is it even possible for her to be? I'm probably overreacting but still doesnt harm nothing to ask.

I'm pretty sure 10 weeks is too young. You might want to have it checked out by the vet in case it is something more serious.

I agree w/ Sharky - could be worms. They'll often cause the tummy to bloat up a bit. The only SAFE way to treat worms, though, is medication from a Vet. Don't ever use the deworming medication that you can find at a store, that stuff is toxic and poison and completely ineffective.

You really should make an appointment to see your Vet and have kitty properly assessed because nobody here can really tell you for sure......but if she's only 10 weeks old, I'd say that's kind of young to be pregnant. I take it that she is in contact to unneutered male kitties then?

Please see a Vet as soon as you're able, so that this can be properly addressed.

Thanks
I'm going to take her to the vet in a few days if we can, the last vet trip sorta put us into the broke catagory but we're gonna do our best.
