Yeah, the temp has apparently dropped  (depends a little on WhERE you did measured), and thus, the delivery is near.  Although we still dont know the exact hour.  This sign although fairly reliable, isnt anywhere exact...

I send our usual links.

But if you have any further questions, or any reports, please come with them!  Usually somebody is here who will try to answer.

Good luck!

Most of these links have been readied by our forumist  Red Top Rescue:

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 birth, delivery and newborns for you here.  After reading this information, let us know if you have any more questions.  And good luck with your approaching new arrivals.
