Just thought I would make a thread to update regularly on my foster pregnant cat. (http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=211630)
So, Goupille is the name I chose for her (it's french and I just like the sound of it). It is probably just temporary since I will have to bring her back to the shelter when her babies are 8 weeks old (I think it's too young, so I will try to keep them longer before they are put to adoption).
She is doing fine and she eats more than when I first got her. Unfortunately, I am struggling to make her eat kitten food (I tried dry and wet food, but she wants nothing else than chicken).
I don't know how far along she is, but I will keep you posted on the progress of her pregnancy. For now, she has a round belly and I can see the little guys in there kicking and moving, so it shouldn't be much longer until the big day. She sleeps a lot, is very affectionnate and seems healthy although I find her too skinny. She is young and probably used to go oustide, wich might contribute to the small amount of fat on her body.
More tomorrow!
