Our girl Gidgit I'm not sure when she conceived but I'm sure it's getting close to time! She's been just laying around clawing the old shirt and purring loudly and her belly is hard this is her second litter! Can't wait!

She's having loss of appetite. Did any of your girls do this if so how long after did she have kittens. She wouldn't let me check her temp

for me it sounds like there is going on soemthing, at least prelabour.    Her claving, her hard tummy.

If you really want to measure the temp, measuring in the armpit of a foreleg is less invasive and thus less stressing.

You can pretend you are playing a new game with her.

the difference will be about 3 grades Fahrenheit lower than in the behind.

and please, when all is done and kittens weaned, consider strongly to spay her.   Unless you are a breeder, but I suspect you arent...    :)

Please continue to report and ask!

Good luck!
