Hi everyone! I rescued a pregnant stray last week and by now I've read about a million posts on this site! But I'm looking for some reassurance...
A neighbor close to where I rescued her said she thought the cat had one or two weeks to go, last week. So she could be due now.
She has a slight bulge in her belly and erect pink nipples. She seems to have been eating quite a lot.
Last night she passed what I assume was her mucus plug - a brown "booger" as I saw it described elsewhere on her. She has a little bit of brownish discharge and she's been licking her vulva and her nipples pretty regularly. Also, about two hours ago she took a pretty giant ****! I've read that that can be a sign.
The thing that worries me is I've never felt the kittens moving, and I've also never heard her make a sound, not one meow or trill. She does purr a lot. And the discharge and nipples seem to indicate this is a legit pregnancy. So are the kittens likely to be stillborn? I know, I've read on here that some cats just are "packed more tight" and you can't feel the kittens, but I'm nervous. Is this cat really pregnant? And if so, how much longer will she be? Should I take tomorrow (Friday) off or is it more probably going to happen on a weekend?
I know the only one who can tell me is a vet! I just wanted to ask on here...
