She knows she has to work the kittens into position, probaby why she is rolling and scratching on that piece of carpet. I would assume she is nearing her time, hh. I would take momms advice and massage her tummy; it may speed the process along and her water may break.

But why only THAT piece of carpet. It's a tiny little space right up against the baseboard. She doesn't do that ANYWHERE else. That's what confuses me.

I would massage her stomach if she'd let me. She doesn't like having her belly touched, and she doesn't like to sit still for very long.

You are new to her try everyday to rub her belly spend lots an lots of time with her if she wants you close be close ! My kitty sat on my chest for weeks not wanting to be far away ever! The patch probably has the smell of a previous pet in your place. Or she just likes that spot! They get weird when pregnant! She is close keep an eye on her if this is her first litter be very close with dental floss towels and lots of patients and sharp scissors! Donot interferr in delivery unless absolutely nessacary and then only do the least possible if she is struggling to clean baby off or doesn't remove placenta and cut unbilical cord you must do it an place baby back in front of her to clean do not wear cologn or anything with a strong scent it will get on baby's when or if you have to handle an new moms don't like foreign smells on new baby's.yeah will try to get pics soon OK

I spend as much time with her as she lets me. When I'm in the kitchen, she likes to lay against my feet. Makes me feel bad for having to walk.

well, the previous tenants had a dog. Maybe he liked that patch of carpet. I think she's just weird ^_~

I was planning on getting a couple hand towels I could use to clean the babies. Right now I only own a couple bath towels, and I can't afford to ruin them.

I almost never wear perfume. The only scented thing I wear is deodorant, and it's baby powder.

I tried putting the box in my room. She completely ignored it. I just don't have enough furniture in there to 'hide' the box. She kept trying to crawl under my mattress, but it's on the floor. There aren't any doors on my closet, and the bedroom door doesn't latch completely, so she just pulls it open.

she woke me up today scratching the he! Out of her box. I have 3 others scattered around the house, including one by that weird patch of carpet, but she completely ignores them.
