what are the signs for a cat being pregnant?

Mitzi has been very affectionate of late which is not like he at all - her beely has grown enormous and she is eating more than normal. She lloks rather unhappy and does not really now what to do with herself most days.

She is not even 1yrs old yet?!

I hve included a pic below of my two cats.

Tillie is the Tabby and Mitzi is the Black & Whte one.

Hi dear. Check this site - they have a variety of information for you. There are not may sites as involved with pets as there are with us, but it's a start.

When our outside cat was pregnant, she was not a full year old either. It depends on what season they were born, and when they get into heat. Sammy had three kittens and the first one had to be helped out of the 'bag'. After that, Sammy knew what to do.

If your kitty looks for a place to 'make a nest' don't clean the area up, she'll just have to find another place and will be stressed. They usually like to have something familiar (i.e. a towel or shirt with your scent) in the nest so as not to feel totally strange.

Your best bet is to take her to the Vet and get reassured, just like with us humans.

Your kitties are so cute!

Good Luck!

Cheers for the link Chery the site looks pretty good and thanks for the tips. Mitzi always chooses to sleep on my bed; so perhaps the blanket that is on my bed would be ideal for her.

My kitties are very cute - yours is too. Whats his name?

Well Mitzi gave birth to 4 health kittens last night. 2 Black & White, 1 Black Tabby and 1 Grey Tabby.

The Black Tabby is going to be mine. Considering my Cassie (who I lost) was a Black Tabby! - I am not trying to replace her, but I miss having a companion?!

They are so small and tiny - but so so cute!

She gave birth in my mums wardrobe in the early hours of this morning, on a blanket of mine. My mum was up with her all night.

Its not the greatest Pic - but I think you can just make the kittens out. They are that small lol

I think poor Mitzi looks Nackered. She was giving birth from 1am to 4.30am this morning. My mum was up with her all night. Bless her.

congrats on the kitties. I once had a cat decide that my lap was the best place to give birth...lol.. talk about a mess. I think that if i look as good as your cat after giving birth i'll be doing great...lol.
