Pregnant, how long before kittens

[thendri8]

So, I am new to having a pregnant cat that I can watch give birth!! Or know it’s so close…
I am wondering how long do you think we have?
I know that I have “noticed” she was pregnant for around 3-4 weeks… when I first noticed I thought maybe she was just getting fat… then about 5-6 days later I knew for sure she was pregnant

Once you can see and/or feel kitten movement it’s about 2 more weeks.

Any plans for spaying and neutering?

 

[thendri8]

Yes, after we have the babies! Here spay/neuters are 3+months out in schedule

Get dad neutered if he's not. He can breed up to 2 weeks after his neuter and even force the female to go into heat as soon as the kittens are hours old. Males have one thing on their mind only lol.

Dad got neutered last week!


Help me welcome SEVEN new baby kittens into the world! They arrived today! Mom and all babies are healthy and full!

Mom and babies are in a separate room from all other cats! We were scheduled when Drako got pregnant. I will be scheduling her about 6 weeks from now so she can be spay as soon as the kittens are weaned

I’m melting from warm fuzzies…they all act like one big kitten.

Wonderful! You should schedule 8 weeks from now; not six. The kittens wean best by 8 weeks, not six. They’ll still be nursing mom regardless. Blessings on the new babies. Watch for a runt!

So, decided to keep y’all in our journey. Momma cat is doing a wonderful job at being a young mother. Kittens are growing strong (gaining weight and strength) and she allows me to love on them, bring them out of the box while she eats. Today I brought them out for the first time for floor time!
ps I have taken them out 3-4 times prior for weigh in and right back in!
