Hi,
How do you know that a cat is pregnant or not?
I am fostering a cat who is fostering 4 kitties. We introduced these 4 orphan kitties as soon as the mamma cat weaned her own babies.
I don't have ANY experience with pregnant cats, but this cat looks pregnant to me. She looks bloated on both sides of her belly. Yet I am not sure whether this is due to nursing or not. And she is really heavy (she is not fat or does not have a big structure).
The mamma cat and her babies were taken care of by a family who had a broken window screen. As far as I know, it is possible for a female cat to have sexual relations while she is still nursing her own babies. SO there is a chance that she might be pregnant.
If she is pregnant, is it OK for her to nurse these babies? They are 6 weeks old, and as far as I can see, they don't nurse that much (they started eating dry food when they were 4 weeks old!). Should I wean the kitties in case??
