Pregnant cat

Question… should I be worried the kittens are moving around a lot in her stomach and she will give a quiet meow I see them moving and they are moving so much now

If the kittens are moving a lot, it means it’s not quite time. Just relax and let Mother Nature run her course. The kittens will come when they come. All should be well. Just wait it out.

i am so excited them pictures are only 4 days apart Im not sure how many she is gonna have so that’s a surprise but I have everything set up and ready

 

[Destinee1022]

Do all cats stop eating before giving birth she hasn’t stopped eating completely but eats less

 

[fionasmom]

They may, although it is not an iron clad sign that the births are starting. Other signs might include going to her nest, restlessness, meowing, rapid breathing, and straining as if she has to go to the litterbox. Given that you have set her up with a bed and are caring for her inside, all you really need to do is to keep an eye on her to see how things progress.

Thanks for your reply I will keep you updated

 

[Destinee1022]

She appears smaller on her sides (not like a football now) and stomach lower is this something I should worry about

 

[fionasmom]

This can happen before they deliver, that the shape of their body starts to change and drop a little

How long after their stomach drops do they give birth normally

 

[fionasmom]

It is not one of the major signs of labor starting, but the kittens may begin to shift around inside the uterus.
