Hi! I just made this account because this has been nagging at me for a few days now.
We recently took in a stray (last friday) that we thought was a pregnant female. We had seen her the week before, and she was pretty scrawny with a weird shape.
When she showed up on Friday, she was still bony in the hips, but her stomach had gotten bigger. I could also feel her nipples and see them. She was very affectionate and ran straight into the house. We kinda assumed she was female, even though I thought the spacing was kinda weird.
Her bottom two nipples got a bit pinker and more pronounced, and they started to lose hair. We also noticed that occasionally there would be small movements in her tummy (idk if they were babies or just weird flinches?). She meows a lot.
Two nights ago, she started howling like I had never heard before from any cat. One of them felt loud enough to wake the house. I saw a decent amount of weird movement that evening as well.
We created a new nesting area for her (she didn't like the original one), and she took to it immediately and has been sleeping there ever since. She's super affectionate, purs a lot, and as far as I can tell, eats and poops normally.
The only thing that doesn't make sense is her genitals. I can't see any balls, but her 'vagina' is pretty round looking and further away than it should be? It's also been more 'open' the last few days, and she sorta avoids laying with hee butt down on the floor, and she's been grooming it more.
Please help. I'm going crazy.
