My cat is very pregnant we had planned on getting her spayed but she ends up pregnant before her appointment. I know she is very far along when she's laying around you can see the babies definitely moving in her tummy. And then move nonstop. How far alongdoes everyone think she might be I had felt the moving almost 3 weeks ago.

If you felt them move almost three weeks ago, it should be anyday now, almost any hour.  When they go into birthing positions, she drops, and you usually dont feel them as much.  So that be the last stage immediately before  delivery - as she has cooked them long enough now.

As luck wants it, cats manage a little too long pregnancy better than humans.  While kittens dont manage to be premature...

I send in some of our usual links.

Dont hesitate to come with further questions, and reports.

Ah, one thing more.  When they are in heat, and feel a tom nearby, they tend to sneak out. Where do you think Houdini got the inspiration to learn his tricks?

YOUR trick is to spay her anyway, even if you know she had mated.   Its no big deal before several weeks after.

Good luck!
