I am currently caring for a cat that I believe is pregnant, but I have a few questions. First of all, she would be 65 day today, and her nipples are still tiny and white. There does seem to be excess, or baggy skin around them. Do some cats just not get pink nipples until the kittens are born? What I am more concerned about, is that I do not feel the kittens moving. About a week ago, I thought I felt something, but it is hard to be sure. She does have a hardness to her belly, and it used to feel lumpy, but it doesn't feel as lumpy as it used to. Do you always feel movement of kittens, or is it possible to not really feel them and still have a healthy pregnancy? Is it possible that the kittens may have moved closer to the birth canal and that is why she feels less lumpy? Is it possible she could be having a false pregnancy? She has not shown any signs of labor. She sleeps most of the time, and really only gets up to eat, drink, use the litter box, and maybe look for a little affection. I made her 2 birthing boxes, and she did check them out last night, but she didn't seem to be nesting. Should I be concerned, or am I worrying over nothing. I really need to ease my mind as I am driving myself crazy over it. Lol
