Ok well when should I worry. Vet said she would be due May 19th the latest. She is not eating. She was eating grass the other night then a few bits, but in the last 24 hrs she has eaten maybe 2oz of wet food... Non of her dry kibble. She usually gets 3oz wet nutro morning she ate maybe half... Then 3oz of Nutro wet at night she ate a bit. She has her dry food bowl full 24/7 but has not touched it
She eats Kitten Nutro Dry... What do you all think. Vet phone is busy.

She could be getting ready to go into labor
She may just be feeling tired, worn out and not really hungry.

Adina didn't get any milk that I could see until after she gave birth. I would feel her up like a dirty ole man every day and nothing. Who knows, I remember having days like that when I was very pregnant...just felt blahh.

Some cats cut down on food before birth, I'm sure you'll keep trying to call the vet to make sure.

Called he said to keep good eye on her because he did not think she was due yet. He said he could be wrong and that also they know for sure there is 6 babies but looks like a 7 or 8th he said if so she is going to be to full to eat
He said if it is like this in the morning to call him. He said it is good she is drinking and a little food is better then non of a tummy full of babies...

no she seems so tired and restless. Right now she is laying across me making it difficult to type right now. She has to be with me. Another thing is the dog is with me on the floor usually she hits her in the butt to make her cry and go away. She has not done that. She might just be too prego.

Maybe it's possible she is too warm and lost her appetite because of that.
But, then again the vet's reason sounded pretty good too!
Hard to eat much when the tummy is already full!
I hope it's nothing, keep us posted.

Ok I just felt her and yes she is huge there. I recall 3 weeks ago seeing nothing and now the poor thing is so full. She went up almost 3lbs in month. He said that was alot and asked if she was eating differently I said nope the usual just a little more wet. She was on 3oz now she takes 6 sometimes, but her dry intake is not alot it was 1 cup now it might be half that. So he did the xray and said WOW she has a lot in there no wonder. He thought they where big also. So we have a plan for a c-section if need be. He said her due date is May 16 - 19 After the 19 unless she shows no labor signs or the babies look to big we will do a c-section and spay at the same time.

Poor Skittles, sounds like she wants those babies out so she can be comfortable again.

Poor mama. I hope she can get comfortable, but I know it's almost next to impossible at this point.
It seemed that Kassie got bigger right up to the day I took her in. Maybe as they were moving around and the contractions maybe had shifted them downward more to make her look bigger.
I can't wait to see all of Skittles' beautiful babies!

I had a bowl of ice cream and Skittles usually licks it 100% clean
She won't even eat it.. She just sits there. The bowl is like 1 inch from her nose.

Moe cut down on her food for about 3 or 4 days before she gave birth which was today!!
She also followed me around the house for 2 days and she would hide alot..So she may be more preggers than you and the vet think!!
