Hi,
I rescued a kitty last week She ran into a friend's
home as they where taking in groceries, They could not keep her and needed to find a forever home So I took her.. They said she might be pregnant I was wondering if

Post pics please. And take her to the Vet to check for pregnancy to be sure. But anyway, pics of her from above of her standing, picks of her nipples and her belly please?

She looks very young and not that far along yet. There is time to have her spayed now and the pregnancy terminated if you wish. This would be an alternative to a kitten having kittens, and she will be healthier for it. I suggest you call your vet.

Thank you for adopting her!

Her belly feels firm.. I did call to see if I could get her spayed the
could not get her in until November 10th they did offer to help find
the kittens homes if she has them before then.

I think November will be too late to get her an abortion. If you want, try the local humane society, they offer cheap spayings but if it were me, I'd start preparing for a birth.

Wait, how old is she? If she's under a year, an abortion would probably be best.

The vet can't see her for almost 6 weeks? That's absurd. What if she's sick? 6 weeks on that too? Time for a new vet.

Call around and find a vet who can spay her in the next week. Surely there is one available.

Or is it your preference to let her have kittens?

It is a organization called Companion cats they will do it for $30
That is all about all I can afford right now otherwise I would have our vet do it, Unless there is a special
deal in the area in the mean time.

Have you explained that she is pregnant? Are they unable to work her in?

Continuing the pregnancy brings more kittens into the world - like this one - who need shots, spaying/neutering, and homes.

Can you set up a payment plan with your vet?

Yes companion cats does no that she is pregnant. I always spay and neuter
all my pets. I don't know if the vet will set up a payment plan, they might.

Have you tried any other vets? They do not all have the same policies.

We have no more clue how far along she is than you do. Since you just got her you have missed the clues early on like when her nipples pinked up.

Have you decided not to spay/abort?
