It's normal for them not to eat before delivery, sounds like she will have her kittens soon.
Perhaps entice her with some canned food? At least then she will be getting fluids.

Sounds like she is close...I would make sure you have set her up in a room with her nesting box, kitten food, water and litter. Also, it is very important for Tilly to be kept indoors only and away from intact males until her kittens are weaned and she can be safely spayed.

Glad everything went ok....now is the time to be vigilent and ensure that mom has no opportunity to get outside again or be around any intact males until she has been spayed.

Offer her a little gently-warmed chicken meat only human baby food and also get some KMR - warm that gently as well. With new Moms, sometimes, they don't leave the nest for long periods of time in order to protect and provide for the babies. Bringing her food in closer to the nest will allow her to still eat but also remain vigilant over her kittens.
