I have a rescued 2-3 y/o Persian tortie, Sushi, who is a very avoidant, anxious and fearful girl. Very much a loner, runs away from her human family, and doesn't really enjoy the company of us or her cat friends (4 cat household), including pets or grooming from me or the other cats. My other female, 2 y/o himi Luna is pregnant, not sure how far along but definitely close (accidental breeding, male has been neutered since). Today, Sushi has been incessantly meowing and trilling, and is obsessing over Luna. This is extremely out of the ordinary. She is typically quiet and doesn't really interact much with any of us, including the cats. She has been grooming Luna, and allowing Luna to groom her, almost seemingly in a maternal way? They are currently together, under my son's bed cuddling and grooming each other. Sushi is intact, but I don't think she is in heat. Her meowing and behaviors are not typical for her cycles.
My husband suggested maybe Sushi can sense Luna is going into labor. Could this be a sign? I am delighted they are together, grooming and cuddling each other, but it is just so against the norm that I am almost concerned for Sushi! Does anyone have any thoughts on the matter? Luna doesn't necessarily have any outward signs of beginning labor.
I am new to the site, if I should post this under pregnant cat care, please let me know. Thanks!
