About 7 weeks ago a calico showed up in our yard. She was skin and bones, starving to death. We fed her, so of course she stuck around, and then decided to keep her. As she put on some weight, you could tell she is pregnant. We took her to the vet and he confirmed it. We've already got people lined up for homes for the babies and we'll keep her, but here is my problem. We have 2 other cats- a neutered male that is about 7 and a spayed female that is 2. Abby, the momma-to-be, is a complete hag to both of them- more so the male than the female. I'm hoping that the behavior is due to being pregnant, wanting to make sure she has a safe place and to protect her babies, and when the babies are gone, she will be better. Is that more than likely what it is. I've noticed that it's mostly when they are all in the house that she is like that. We have a big screened in patio and when they are out there, they actually seem to get along better. Any thoughts?
