First, make sure the litter box is scooped out daily and always clean. Is she the only cat using it? Is the box big enough?
If her bottom is not clean, you'll want to wipe it for her with a warm, damp cloth. If she is heavily pregnant she may not be able to reach her private parts to clean herself at present.
If she is a long-haired cat with lots of fur near her rear, you may want to trim some of the fur away, but have someone hold her so that the scissors don't hurt her.
Usually a cat who eliminates outside of the box is trying to tell you something. Have there been any other changes in the home recently that may be stressing her?

My cat is pregnant and she should deliver soon. But she is starting pooping outside her litter box and it seems that she have some diarrhea os that normal? Plus around her nipples she have some dry white spot? M a little bit concerned plz help
The dried white spots are just her milk that is leaking. The diarrhea is probably her body's way of cleaning out in preparation for labor and delivery. She must be getting close if her milk is coming in.
Do you know how long she has been pregnant?

Well the last time i saw them mating was the middle of august the vet told me that she should deliver at 25 of October
Okay. Her tummy may be upset. You can give her some plain, canned pumpkin mixed in with her food. Cats usually love it, and it helps firm up the stool.
She may be closer to her due date than Oct. 25.
I'd keep an eye on her. She may have them this week.
Did vet do an x-ray?

Hey i just was checking on the queen's kitten putting my ear on her belly i heard like poping small balloons and a very loud purring it is so wonderful but i never felt them moving is that normal?

How long is the pregnancy? You may feel them move at earliest 3 weeks before delivery, or later. Sometimes they arent clearly felt move. If for example, a small litter - yes, it happens.
Also, the last days, when she has dropped, the movements arent no longer easy to detect.

Boil the chicken, cook the rice as it says on the box. Do not add salt, pepper, anything. Just straight boiled plain chicken and plain rice.

Also remember this is a supplement, NOT a cat food replacement. If she's pregnant, she needs to be eating dry kitten food.

Also try mixing Pedialyte[yes the human kind] into her water. It'll help with diarrhea. Make sure its unflavored, though.

Oh thanks for the advice i will definitely try it but is it okey while she is pregnant?

Pedialyte is fine. You can also mix plain, canned pumpkin into her wet food to help with the diarrhea.
