I have two cats, a girl named Fibonacci (Chi for short) and a boy named Pythagoras (Pi). They're both strictly indoor cats. She became pregnant in early June (approximately). Her nipples are very visible (though not leaking milk) and her stomach is hard and swollen, and lately she's become rather pear-shaped (she's a fairly small cat). Throughout her pregnancy she's been extremely affectionate (she was a little stand-off-ish but sweet at times before) but since last night she's been even more clingy (and sleeping a lot). She's walks around, restless, making the same purr-meows she did when she was in heat, rolling on the floor, wiggling her butt and rubbing against everything. She also frequently is licking her genitals. Pi keeps mounting her but she growls, hisses and swipes at him when he tries to have intercourse (which she didn't do when she was in heat this spring). She's already made her nest in my closet, so I figure she's only a week or two from birthing. I'm just confused/worried about her behavior now, and his. Is it normal for them to act like this? Could she be in heat again? Should I keep them separated while I'm gone at work this evening? Thanks in advance for all your advice!
