I rescued my cat from an axial hospital. She's a beautiful long hair forest cat. I wasn't told that she might be pregnant when i got her, but when i got to her she was just too cute to turn away from so i took her knowing there was a change that she was pregnant. She's been acting a little weird, very affectionate. She's affectionate in the past but its getting to the point where she just wants to be in my lap all the time(like right now she's sitting on my keyboard). She's also becoming more vocal and laying in my closet a lot. Does it seem like to you she might be going into labor? Im nervous lol

Welcome!  Its surely nearing, but how near, difficult to know.

Do you feel the kittens move?  How long had you done so?

Btw, what is an axial hospital

Good luck!

Fleece or flannel good to use in the bedding for kittens.
