Hello

Full story made short and simple


Female cat, in a road of male cats.

Last year, Female cat had about 7 males after her, she seemed young and small (found out not her first litter) - 2 of the 7 was mine - I got them in and "done" asap, I did not let them out, however a week after the operation, the female cat was still being "chased" and one of my cats got her pregnant... Her littler was all but one dead.

She has had 2 sets of kittens since then, and just had her second set, the kittens are now 7 weeks old, all 4 of my male cats are now "done", last week, we was told that she was pregnant again, with 3 weeks to go.

However, I have counted at least 14 cats after her now, is she really pregnant?

3 of our males are brothers, the 4th is a rescue kitten who has now turned one.

Is there something I can do? I don't want Bubbles to wake up to this fighting as one of the other male cats will get hurt again. - 6 has just scattered Might be too late for that...

I live in the UK if that helps anyone.

I suspect you must stop the flood at the source. Ie neuter the female too


I presume she isnt yours. So you must either talk the owner over.
(Say you will do evertything practical like taking her to the wet - it may help).

Or even - make a good and praiseworthy deed, and pay for it yourself... If necessary, not talking too much with the owner, just do it.
"obey the thirst" says the reklame slogan. I say "obey the need".


Yes, females can have heat although already in pregnancy. So for ex. it happens they do have two entirely different littera at the same time. Delivering them 3 weeks apart, successfully.
This is not everyday, but not very unique either.


Good luck!

She is not mine.

They planned to get her "done" last week, but they told us that she is due for another litter in 3 weeks. Thats just 2 weeks time.

They was also meant to get their male cats done, although I see one chasing her.

I am concerned for the cats that are chasing and the cat being chased, they are fighting a lot and it seems that my cat will intervene as he has done in the past, which if this is the case, the other cats stand no chance what so ever.
