My cat tink got out on may 10th and is very pregnant I have been taking her temp. every day like the web sites say and she has droped below 100 deg. Off and on all day and is hidding under my bed and in my closet back and forth just laying around and won't eat. Could she be in labor?:confused:

She sounds like she is to me. Wherever she lays down and stays for a period is the spot she is going to pick to have her babies in. When she picks this spot, make up a nice warm bed for her to have them in. After she gives birth, change the materials used but keep a warm bed there for her and her kittens :)

I shut her in my closet I have another cat so I wasn't sure what else to do. I made her a bed with towels and put food and water and a litter box in with her. Do you think she will be OK?

I'm sure she will be fine. Unlike humans, who usually need a doctor while in labor, cats know what to do. Good luck with your new kitties! :)

Sometimes one cat will eat the others kittens, sometimes the mama will eat them, herself. Make sure she feels secure. Here a website that may help you out.Labor and Delivery in Felines: Breeding Tips for Healthy Kittens from HDW Enterprises and Foothill Felines Bengals. good luck
