I'm not sure how far along my queen is. I didn't notice she was pregnant til about a week ago and you could definitely tell she was pregnant from the size of her stomach and her nipples were linker and larger. I took out my big dog cage and set it up for her, put an old sheet at the bottom, water bowl and food bowl and even a little flat pillow. I covered it up with another blanket so it would be dark and she would have some privacy. She seems to love the spot because that is where she stays all the time. My main concern is how far along she is. She seems to be either sleeping, grooming or eating all the time. She doesn't do much running around except for when she gets outside and I lure her back with food haha. She is young still. Not sure how old exactly. I found her last August and she was a kitten.
My main concern is that I'm not sure how far along she is. Any help? Or advice? Any will be much appreciated[emoji]128516[/emoji]

I just noticed she is producing a little milk in her two back nipples, and none in the others.

She will eventually begin to produce in the others. She may still have a good month to go yet. When they are young, they sometimes look further along than they really are. Cats do tend to sleep a lot when pregnant. It's good she likes her nesting crate. You might want to keep her inside at some point so she doesn't have her kittens outside. Sounds like she's enjoying the good life of the pampered pet! Patience is the name of the waiting game with pregnant cats! :)

PS: Give her kitten chow and lots of wet food for optimal nutrition. They eat tons when pregnant and lactating!
