this her again. She sleeps a lot. She was meowing a lot then wanted to go outside a lot I knew she was in heat but it stopped for an whole month later. The reason why I'm trying to know if she is because my kids be handling her the wrong way sometimes and I get scared if they might damage any kittens.
An she is 5months old

Well, you say she was in heat and she goes outside, and she is not in heat anymore, so I'd say yes more than likely she is pregnant. It would actually be more surprising if she wasn't. Cats are so very good at breeding fast, I think nearly as good as rabbits. :) She is a bit young to have a litter, very young.

No, she is about the right age, they can get pregnant as young as 4 months, as soon as they go into heat, they are able to have kittens, it might not be good for her but it can happen.

Yes, absolutely take her to the vet to be checked. She is most likely pregnant, but if not she is ill. If she's not too far along, the vet can spay her now so she will not have kittens. She is much too young to have kittens, and she herself is still developing. She could have a very difficult time giving birth and nursing kittens. It's dangerous and unhealthy at such a young age. Please take her to the vet. Also, please instruct your kids how to handle her properly and do not let them mistreat her. She is very pretty! Let us know what happens!

I don't know, who is to judge who is too far along? For mine, I've took the risk, I've lost kittens and a mother cat, but I never could take them down to have that done. It wasn't right for the kittens or their mother. To end them without even have had a chance. :( One was fixed and I did not know, . I am very sure to be sure its listed that I'm to be notified about them if they are in this state. Yes, she should be seen by a vet, perhaps with kitten food and some extra loving they'll make it.

It has been a month, they should be halfway done. If you have any other females in heat or not, please don't let them outside or near any males until they are spayed.

Please keep us posted on how she does.

It's what cats do when they are pregnant. They have lots of pregnancy hormones that drive their behavior in different ways. It's all normal.

Pretty sure she's pregnant. At least all the signs are there, so if I were you i'd expect she is and get ready for some crazy months

That's what we're here for!

Have you made a couple of nesting spots for her in the house, like in your closet where it is private and the kids won't bother her? Get a box and line it with soft towels or an old blanket. Then be prepared to replace the towels after she gives birth. She'll want her food and water nearby outside the closet door so she doesn't have to leave her kittens for long. And her litter box in the room but not right next to her food.

Begin feeding mama kitten chow for extra nutrition, and give her lots of wet food and water.

And once the kittens are born, do not let your kids handle them for close to 3 weeks. Their eyes and ears do not open until about 7 to 10 days later. They need dark and quiet. They cannot regulate their body temperature for 3 weeks, so they need mama with them most of the time. You can put a heating pad on low under the towels or blanket on one end for added warmth, that they can move away from if they get too warm.

You are in for a fun ride! And consider spaying mama after the kittens are weaned. :)
