Prego Stray cat i found

Hello Like 5 Days Ago I found a Stray cat And shes Pregnant! I don't know how far along she is Her Nipples are bright pink her belly is somewhat big where you can tell. SHE EATS A LOT and Her Milk Glands look bigger And she sleeps mostly all day and Has  a strong desire for Affection. I made her a spot in my room with a litter box food and water and a Nest because i don't know when she is due or what not. Any Ideas tips or anything?!

Thanks!

Hi!!!

Please take this girl to the vet as soon as you can. (If you need help finding a low-cost vet in your area, we can do that.) She needs to be checked for worms, parasites and diseases. She probably has fleas too, which I'm sure you don't want in your home!

Simply because there are already so many unwanted kittens and cats in the world, I would ask the vet if she's early enough in her term to do a spay-abort of the kittens. This way, no kittens now and she can't have any in the future.

If she's too far along or you don't want to do that, I think you're doing just fine with what you have for her. :nod: More people with experience with pregnant cats will come along shortly with advice.

Good luck and keep us posted!!

Thank you! & I plan on taking her to the vet soon. I just wanted an Idea of WHEN she was going to go into labor, I will not abort her kittens. I can't! Thank you tho! :-)

From what you say it sounds quite soon, but the vet will give you a better idea.

Tx AND congrats to this marvellous experience!

Are you planning on keeping her?  Her oncoming kittens?

There is some demand for home raised kittens, so with some luck, you prob can find them good homes...

HOW you choose among adopters, more later.

Do you have resident cats or other animals?  (If you do, her her for herself at least till she gots OK from the vet).

Again, tx a lot for helping this little sis of ours.

I plan on keeping her yes, I don't plan on keeping the kittens i have a 2 year old Im not trying to have a crazy house lol. Yeah i have another cat he lives outside tho his name is gizmo so i've been kind of keeping Her inside to protect her from him because i don't want her getting into a fight or anything.

She should stay indoors until her kittens are weaned and she is neutered.  She might have the kittens somewhere outside, or she might have an accident and you don't want to be having to hand-feed her kittens, or she might get pregnant again - she can't be spayed until the kittens are weaned, so at least 8 weeks after they are born.  Other cats should be kept away from her as well - she may well attack if she thinks her kittens are in danger.
