I think my cat may be pregnant, if she is she should be due near, or around the 23rd of June, I think.
Well, she keeps licking my hands, and my face. Is this normal for an expectant cat? Is soap residue bad for cats? Should I use something different for washing my hands with? Or just not let her lick them? She never has been a human licky cat. She started 'washing' my hands about a week ago, and started on my face yesterday. She will get up into my lap, stand with her little paws on my shoulders, and just go to town, as if I hadn't bathed in a while. She even threw a fit yesterday when I got in the shower, I had to set her up with a little perch between the outer shower curtain, and the liner, so she could peek in to see I was okay. We have a big garden bathtub, so she can sit very comfy, or even lay down. Wich she does, on her special towel that stays for her to sit on, when ever I bathe. But this shower thing, she will not leave me alone.
It's pretty hard for me to see her not being herself. She will be 3 in about 5 days. I've had her since she was 7 weeks old, so I have had a chance to get to know her. Any ideas?? My pooor girl won't rest if I am not stationary in one room. I've neglected house work for the past two weeks because of this, and I need to get work done. Lock her in a room for a while so I can get housework done? I don't want to stress her by forcing her to be seperated from me, but I want her to rest, and I don't want her to get steped on since she is usually right under foot.
Thanks guys you've been great help for me so far. I am so new at this possible pregnant thing. I'm not new to having furry babies, and not new to cats, but... this is way different.
