I know, this has been posted so many times but I'm a foster mom - just got Kiera last night so I have no prior behavior to compare to.
Kiera is approx 8 months old, abandonded during "moving season" (July 1st) and according to the vet at the SPCA (shelter that we are fostering for) she is "probably pregnant". We are to keep her until the kittens are old enough to be rehomed or until we determine that Kiera is not pregnant.
She's a real sweetie, very affectionate, loves having her tummy rubbed gently. Her nipples seem larger than on my other cat (but she's 9 yrs old and spayed so I'm not sure she's a good comparison tool) and they're still surrounded by fur, her belly does seem firm and a bit large. You can feel tiny "gas bubbles" if you put your hand on her tummy but that might just be "actual gas bubbles" ! (reminds me of when I was pregnant and wanting to feel the baby move - you'd mistake every disgestive gurgle for the baby!).
In case the above pictures didn't post, I've added them to my yahoo photo album. Click on the album titled "Is Kiera pregnant"
