How can I tell if my cat is having kittens?

Answer by  Erynn (1651)

She won't go into heat again; she will gain weight; she will begin 'nesting' behavior and become quieter and calmer; she will eat more.

Your cat's temperature will drop. She will get restless and start to pant. Make sure she stays inside and have a box with papers in it. She will make the nest herself, you don't really have to do anything. You can sit with her and say nice things to keep her calm, otherwise let nature take it's course.

Cats nipples will turn very pink once they are pregnant. They will also pull the fur away from the nipple. Not to mention they will get fat.

Her belly will grow over about two months, and so will her breasts as they start to fill with milk. She will look for a place to make a "nest" and have her litter. Her breasts will start to leak within a week or less before she gives birth and her behavior will change.

The gestation period is just over two months long. You can feel her belly and if she is further along the belly will feel tight.

she will probably gain a little weight. her nipples will drop down low. her appetite might change, either drop off or pick up. in the final weeks before she gives birth, you can actually feel the little kitten lumps in her belly.

Take your cat to the vet to make sure. Her belly will grow larger and she will spend time trying to find a safe 'nest' in which to give birth.
