Okay, so My cat Abbie will be 3 in August. She's normally been on the thinner side weight wise. She's indoor/outdoor and has always been eating the same way her whole life.
On her 1 year birthday she was having surgery on a crushed elbow joint (apparently common in young cats) while she was being worked on, they were supposed to fix her too.
Everything was fine until about a month ago, we started leaving the doors open cause it was warming up outside.
Since then my whole family has noticed she's put on a lot of weight in the last month or so.
She has the big belly now and everyone who sees her asks us if she's pregnant.
It doesnt really make sense (at least in our minds) that a young cat, who hasnt have any changes in her eating, but has been exercising a lot more (due to her being outside) would gain weight so suddenly.
What I want to know is, Is it possible for her to be pregnant even though they supposedly fixed her almost 2 years ago? And if not, what other kinds of things could be happening?
Thanks.
