Is my cat pregnant

[spottedkittie89]

I know pregnant cats loss the hair around their nipples but so they remove it themselves to because she has been nibbling her stomach and around her nipples for a good part of the day

The color is usually compared to strawberry, a quite intense rose red pink...    Although  not all get it that clearly.

Easiest to know in unsure cases, is if you know how she usually looks.   If it si visibly more pinky than before, so it is.

Anyway, an unspayed female, if she for example got out and met a tom, count on it.

And being unspayed, and coming into heat, they will do their outmost to get out, and all toms around will be highly interested.

OK, to summarize.  I think its pink enough, shall I congratulate or shall I  regret your problem?   

I am excited to be having kittens can't wait to see what they all look like

Ah, sorry, I wasnt looking at the nick which I recognize.  I know THIS pregnancy is wanted and planned...  

The answer essentially the same, of course.

She seems more eager than most, but yeah, its common enough.  They both tend to fall off themselves, but are also activly removed.

Is she longhaired?   With longhaired it will be more pronounced, this behavior.
