There is a stray cat that keeps wondering around my friends farm. We noticed around Halloween that her tummy was larger than normal. I thought it was just worms or she was just getting fat off of food. Well my friend thinks she may be pregnant but it is now 3 weeks later and she looks about the same. Still big or a little bigger I guess, but her nipples have no change at all, still small and whiteish in color. Wouldn't she have had the kittens by now or be showing other signs, like her nipples pink/losing hair around them? Just curious.

Pregnant or just fat?

If shes not fixed she's most likely pregnant. Since you don't know the date it would be hard to tell what to expect when. About a week before I'm sure things will really change.
I'm guessing if you can see her nipples that she dosen't mind being handled. Sometimes you can feel movement. But you would have to be really gentle when feeling for babies.

Best thing to do is have her checked by a vet...she could have worms, she could just be a large cat, she could be pregnant. The gestation period is 2 months....but again, the best thing to do is to take her into the vet so they can determine if she is indeed pregnant. If she isn't she can safely be spayed.
