Anyone know when my cat will give birth?

kelly davies · Apr 21, 2015

No she hasnt gone yet but felt a kitten in there today. It was like a sausage shape in her belly

kelly davies · Apr 24, 2015

I can now feel the kittens inside her moving. She has white flaky stuff on her nipples. When she is cuddled next to me she pushing my hand to her belly so I rub it gently for her and when I do this she sort of lays in the birthing position but she still has her hearty appetite at the moment.
just wondering if anyone knows how close we may be?

Okay so my cat lost her mucus plug yesterday but still no kittens. I can still feel them moving and shes shown little signs of labour. Shes walked around and meowed but only done this twice. Should i be worried?

Sarthur2 · May 3, 2015

Wow. I notice we thought she was in labor almost 3 weeks ago! But now she's actually lost her mucous plug, so it's moving in the right direction. Just be patient. Nothing you can do but wait unless she appears in distress.

kelly davies · May 3, 2015

yeah. She isnt in any distress and shes still eating

Just be available to her as much as you can. It sounds like she's fine and you're nervous, so maybe take a few deep breaths and reread the birthing articles so you feel confident that you can provide support and help if needed. Just remember, cats have been giving birth without human help for many years and it usually turns out just fine. Keep us posted!

Thank you! I just want the kittens to make an appearance. Feela like he has been pregnant for ages! Shes still eating and wondering around as happy as larry.

my cat still hadnt given birth and still isnt showing signs of labour. I can still feel the kittens they are very active. All my cat is doing is sleeping. Im worried this isnt normal

Sarthur2 · May 7, 2015

It's normal. Be patient!

kelly davies · May 7, 2015

Okay thank you!

kelly davies · May 8, 2015

So today she has started meowing and will not leave me alone. Shes meowing a lot but not really loud as its only really started the last hour. I can't feel the kittens moving and she does seem restless. She will be comfy but then move. Do you think the kittens are getting ready to make an appearance? :clap:

Sarthur2 · May 8, 2015

Definitely. Could be a day or two but she sounds like she's dropped and the process is starting.

kelly davies · May 8, 2015

All shes done today is meow, walk around. she goes into her birthing area and then on my lap shes back amd fourth and constantly puuring

Sarthur2 · May 8, 2015

The restlessness is indicative of going in to labor or pre-labor. You're on your way!

kelly davies · May 8, 2015

She's been pacing and non stop meowing since 10am its now 7pm headache much lol

silverphoenix69 · May 8, 2015

I know how you feel! Good luck!

kelly davies · May 8, 2015

Do you know how long she can be like this before she gives birth? :lol3:

Sarthur2 · May 8, 2015

Quite a while. She's probably having contractions. Babies could come overnight or tomorrow. My cat paced and was uncomfortable all day on a Saturday. Slept on top of me that night, and finally began having kittens around 7:30am Sunday.

Can you tell whether she's dilating? She should be dilating if she's in labor. Any discharge?

Poor baby. She's in pain and can't get comfortable. Glad you're able to be with her.

kelly davies · May 8, 2015

What do you mean dilated? Yes shes had discharge she cleans it away pretty quickly shes also likcing her nipples à lot. Shes in her birthing area now and has calmed down but i think i seen her trying to push.
Ill be by her side all the way, love my little girl to bits

Beginning to open up her vulva, so the babies can come out.

If she has began to active phase with pushing, we dont want it to be too long... Prephase may be longer, but not active pushing (and yes, when they push they are dilated too)
