Long story short, I am fostering a momma cat. We obviously have no idea of when she mated so I'm trying to play "psychic" to see when she'll have the kittens. My daughter and I have bets going too !
Anyone wanna add their psychic abilities to mine and guess when she's due ?
Here's what I taken down as notes since we got her
Aug 25th: first day with us, belly is a little large, nipples are large too, more whitish than pink.
Aug 29th: Threw up and didn't eat for 4 days. Vet was useless and couldn't tell me anything
Sept 1st: Got her appetite back (after some good vibes from this board) and is back to stuffing herself
Sept 3rd: more widening of belly
Sept 5th: nipples seem fuller (as opposed to flat)
Sept 7th: Feel babies moves
Sept 10th: see kittens moving through fur
Sept 15th: Can squeeze tiny drop of milk from middle nipples
Today I took her rectal temp and it was 99.5 (the ear thermometer said the same thing). Her vulva may seem a little swollen, not really sure, might be wishfull thinking
She has no decrease in appetite (eats like a horse), no discharge, no acting weird. Just seems normal today.
So all bets are on ! Get out your crystal ball and see if you can predict the kitties birthday !
Thanks for playing !
