Good afternoon!
I took in a pregnant foster cat 16 days ago. No one knows when she got pregnant. Here are her symptoms, please let me know what you all think. I'm thinking she will deliver this week maybe?
She has pink swollen nipples,lost fur around her nipples, I have been able to feel the kittens moving in her for about 2 weeks now and have been able to see her belly move for about a week. She is terribly clingy and can barely walk because of her belly. Here are 2 pictures of her from Saturday.

P.s. I will haveher and her kittens until the kittens are 12 weeks old , all are spayed or neutered and have their shots.

It really could be any day or another week. It’s difficult to know.

Is her nest set up? Do you have supplies ready?

Here are helpful links:

Pregnant Cat? What To Prepare For The Birth

It’s very nice of you to foster!
I have 2 nesta set up for her and plenty of supplies to help with delivery and also be able to feed the kittens if she doesn't or can't. I guess I'm anxious because I want to be there if she needs help. Thank you for the links.
