This was intentional?? Didn't she JUST have a litter?

Ah, so these here will be pure Russian blue for sure!?   Swell!   Russian Blue rules!

Ouch!  Jen has right, that was tightly, too tightly.  Its really NOT  "according to Hoyle".   Russian Blue or not.   We arent pleased, sorry to say this.   :(

Sorry for the rant.  Anyway, what is done is done, so its just to proceed with damage control.

  Be sure she gets first class nourishment already now, and give her also some extra calcium, as  her  natural reserves are thinner than they should be in a pregnant queen.

It wasn't intentional as she just had her last litter in February the vet said that it was ok for her to have another one though I'm not pleased with it either but it's happened. Winter is spoilt with her choice of nourishing food.

I am happy to hear you are spoiling Winter with good food.

It may seem strange that others have been less enthusiastic about Winter expecting kittens than you might have hoped as I am sure that while it was not intended you will feel excitement about the potential for more cute kittens.  You might find the following article explains the replies you have recieved: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/257546/...-of-thecatsite-com-to-owners-of-pregnant-cats

I hope we will be following a healthy pregnancy and straigh forward birthing for this next litter and Winter has all the energy needed for this new family of kittens. She is such a beautiful cat.

I need to ask if something could be wrong as I can't see the kittens moving anymore or does this mean that she is due soon

It means she is getting closer. The kittens may be dropping down in preparation for birth, and the mama cat may look smaller. It becomes difficult to see the babies move at this point, but this is normal. :)

Temperature is not always an accurate predictor. Other signs, such as a rippling belly, discharge, a dilating vulva, and intense restlessness, are far more telling.

Expectant mamas do loads of licking of their nipples and their privates! :)
