So its soon now. Had she dropped? Ie does she suddenly looks smaller? And her kittens move further down between her back legs?
Rub her tummy, if she wants and allows it!

Do you have supplies in place?
A nest or two or three for her to choose from?
Kitten Milk Replacer (KMR) Pet Ag powder is recommended
Unflavored Pedialyte
Needleless syringe, small 1-2-ml/cc
Scale for weighing kittens. A digital that measures in grams or 1/10 of an ounce
A heat source, can be a pad, hot water bottle sock w/raw rice.
It is best to be prepared just in case complications arise.

No she hasnt dropped but her buldging sides are closer to her bum then her ribs ppor thing looks like a kitten still herself. She will be getting fixed after this.im so excited to meet these kitties but I have a concern.from my understanding she was ganged up on by more than one male cat could this be a problem
No. If she conceived on different days she could deliver on different days or deliver a premature kitten. Premature kittens do not always survive. Since the kittens could have different fathers you could wind up with quite a smorgasbord of colors.

I was told there were multiple fathers. There were 5 male cats near her. One was more aggressive. When rescuing her he attacked her everytime she attempted to leave the area. I tried food etc...but a no go until the water hose came out. Also the cowardly men ran like crazy but im assuming that is when the deed was done because shes been mine since...

Make sure she has a quiet out of the way place to give birth and stay with the kittens for about 4 weeks. Lots of people use a large closet or spare room, but ultimately she will choose the spot. She may move them closer to you a week or two after she gives birth.
Thank you for taking this kitten in. There are 3 or 4 threads currently where pregnant strays were taken in and have become loving indoor cats.
How many nipples does she have?

She has 8
Ok, just checking. there were only 2 in the picture.
No worries about the heating pad. If you need something a sock filled with raw rice can be microwaved and will hold the heat for 3 or 4 hours.
It's good to be prepared.
