Help, I'm worried?

Hey as you guys know, my Meatloaf is pregnant.

I'm kind of worried though because gestation is only about 65 days, right?

Well I'm not sure the exact date of mating, because I was trying to keep her separated from the other cats during her heat.

It started on January 6th and ended on January 13th. So sometime in between there.

So, even if she mated on January 13th, that would make her about 67 days pregnant wouldn't it?

Or should I subtract 5 days to each day (Since it takes about 5 days for the egg to reach the uterus) therefore she would only be 62 days pregnant?

So she would be inbetween 62 days and 69 days now?

should I be worried???
what should I do

Sometimes it comes later. Especielly siameses are know to come later, but also happens with other cats. It is partly individual.
Do you know if her mother was a later??

In any case, better somewhat later than early. Kitten have more difficult to manage early birth than, say, human babies.


Do you have a friendly vet handy? Phone and ask?


Good luck!

Can you still feel the kittens moving in her? If you can, and she seems to be acting normal, then you don't need to worry too much yet. She could also just have a small litter, and be keeping them a few days longer, or like you said, maybe it took a while for the eggs to reach the uterus. You could try calling a local vet or shelter, and ask them for advice
But, as long as she and the babies seem fine for now, I don't think you need to worry too much yet

yea I can feel them move, they wiggle like little worms. poor Loaf can't get comfortable, she has big kitten lumps. She is a large, lumpy loaf. lol

I can feel 2 separate bodies. I wonder if she has a third or fourth in there. She is kinda funny looking cause she will lay on her belly and a kitten will be on either side of her and she looks lumpy.
It is so cool, I can feel their entire bodies and legs. I wish I could feel their ears. I love when they push against her with their little paws.

I think if she shows no signs of labor by Monday I might take her in.. since, if I have my days right, she'll be exactly 70 days that day I think. I dunno,

just wanna make sure she is ok.

But good news, she was sleeping in one of the kittening boxes I have set up, and she started 'nesting' in my dresser drawer so I cleaned it out and put a towel in it in case she decides to pop in there.

I think she's really close. she's kind of restless today. I know she is uncomfortable. Poor loaf.

Aww, I always feel so bad for the Moms when their so far into their pregnancy, they can't even lie down
Nesting is definatly a good sign that she's close
As long as they're still moving, you know everybody is still heathy in there, so that's good!
I'm hoping with you that they come today!
