Don't know how far along my cat is. Can anyone help?

My cat is defintley pregant. But i dont know how far along.. And we are going away in a week and i dont want her to have them when we are gone. She is a little cat, her tummy is getting very big. Her nipples are a light pink colour and swelling. I havent noticed any fur missing around them. But she has been grooming herself alot the past couple days. All she basically does is lay on my desk on her side all day. Can anyone help? I can post pictures if needed smile.gif
Thanks! Hannah

We have a good collection of articles in the Cat Health section which you can access by scrolling up to the brown bar, clicking on Articles,and then choosing the Cat Health section and scrolling through the choices.  To make this super easy for you, I am copying the links regarding pregnancy, birth, delivery and newborns for you here.  After reading this information, let us know if you have any more questions.  If you need to know more definitively when she is likely to deliver, you should probably take her for a vet exam. therwise, perhaps you should just engage the services of an experienced cat sitter to come to your home once or twice daily while you are away, to check on her progress and care for her during delivery if that happens while you are away.

Boarding is more stressful by far than staying at home so I wouldn't recommend it.
