How many?

I run Little Mama Rescue in KY, and this beautiful girl came in a couple days ago. She was a stray, so they're unsure as to how far along she is. I'm attaching a couple photos of her.

She is currently:

- Nipple area has been cleared
- Constantly Changing positions (what pregnant mama doesn't though!)


How many do you think she'll be having? How much longer do you think it will be until she delivers? I estimated a week (2 days ago, so I say 5 days!)

Welcome to TCS...it's really hard to judge how far along a cat is from pictures alone. Have you had her seen by a vet given that she was a stray?

Did you read this post that Gaye attached to the top? It has great information about pregnancy and delivery including what signs to look for:

She's got an appt tomorrow ... she was rescued at 10PM Friday evening.

I hadn't seen that post beforehand, but It's extremely helpful!

Thanks!

I have no idea how many kittens she will have. When I foster, I always figure it is just whatever and whenever...whatever number of kittens, whenever they decide to come! LOL!

She is pretty, looks a lot like my last foster Mom, CoCo. So if I had to guess, I'd say five kittens, a calico girl, brown tabby boy, tuxedo boy, orange and white boy, and a black boy, who would be the runt! And since my birthday is April 6th, and Festie was born April 7th, I'll guess she has them on April 6th or 7th! How is THAT for scientific!?!

Welcome to TCS. If you rescue, this it the place for you! You will get great advice, and learn so much!
