Mucus plug?

[Krisander0011]

I recently moved to a new state and my cat got out and ended up getting pregnant. She's an inside cat. I wasn't really sure how far along she was but I can feel and see kittens. She has milk as of this morning, and I found dark brown discharge on my couch so I checked and it's coming from her lady bits. About how long does she have left? She's been acting normal sleeping all day, eating, and drinking. I dont know what a mucus plug from a cat looks like. Thank you

It could be anytime now or a few more days. Her body is definitely getting ready for labor. If I recall with my cat, once her milk came in and the discharge started it was about 3 days to kittens.

Do you have supplies in the house? Check out these articles:

Found this on my washer this morning. She must've clean herself up, I didn't see any visible discharge. It looks like straight up blood though, is this concerning?

The discharge should be pinkish, so this is a tad concerning. There really should not be bright red blood unless she’s delivering a kitten — and even then it should not be much.

What’s been happening with her since? She may need to see a vet tomorrow.

She's been acting normal I haven't seen any discharge other then the little bit left on the washer. Kittens are moving a ton
