This is Cream Cat. She will be spayed as soon as possible after this litter, her first. She’s a free-range farm cat, so her date of conception is unknown.
I’ve been able to feel the kittens with my hand for over a week and a half, and they’ve gotten considerably more active since Saturday. Today, when she was lying on my lap, I could feel them moving along my legs. She’s been doing some very non-committal nesting behavior on and off for about two weeks. Mostly she lays around, following me from room to room since Saturday. Her milk hasn’t dropped, but I can feel the ridges of the milk vein behind her tears. A little hair comes loose when I rub her tummy.
She had a small dab of brown crusty looking something at the base of her vulva, which I picked off. It didn’t have a smell like poo and seemed to have a tee or tiny bit of liquid underneath. She doesn’t seem the least bit agitated, but she switches sleeping locations about every hour: the floor, one of her nest boxes, the back of the couch, the coffee table ....
Any guesses on how much longer we’ve got? I feel like I might be reading too much into the signs I think I’m seeing, but I want to meet these kitties so much!
