    Is my cat in labor?
    We just got a stray about almost a month ago. We took he to the vet after about 3 days of having her and he said she was in heat about a month ago and that she was pregnant. Now she's pretty big. Today her legs are like twitching along wit her tail kind of weirdly and abnormally. She's been crabby lately but today she's been all over everyone and not eating much. Also she's been way more active like looking around (for a spot to give birth?) but other then that there's not really anymore signs. Could she be in labor? I don't even know if its been long enough, but I think it might be. But I'm really not sure if she's in labor or not.

    Do you have boxes set out for her in secluded areas for her to give birth in?

    Did the vet say how far along she was? Cats are pregnant for 9-10 weeks.

    If she is in labor, then she probably won't actually give birth until the middle of the night. Just give her space. Cats can stop labor for up to a full day if they feel threatened or watched. Just try to check on her every now and then. If she seems distressed, or you think something's wrong, then take her to the vet.

Cat labor [ 2 Answers ]

I'm pretty sure that my cat is about to pop. Her belly is huge and she can barely walk without laying down. I know that when labor starts cats lose their appetite. However my cat is still eating and even more than normal. Could she still go into labor if she still has an appetite.
