When cats get close they can seem to go into heat - I'm assuming it is all the hormones kicking in for the birth. This is what is probably attracting the male. Having him mate withher could introduce an infection if she is nearly ready for birth and affect the unborn kittens (not advised).

I would seriously reccomend keeping her in now, a) to keep her away from the tom and b) so she gives birth in the house and not under a hedge somewhere. She will then need to be kept in until the kittens are weaned and until you have her spayed if you are having her spayed or at least for a good few weeks so she gets a chance to recover from having had kittens before you let her get pregnant again.
Excellent reply as usual!

Anyway to the nice ones who replied thank you for your concern and just to let you know we have 2 healthy kittens one born 7.10pm and the other 7.41pm since then Chaplina has not been doing anymore pushing so looks like we have 2 healthy kittens which we can keep making us a 4 cat household
Wasnt looking forward to having to give any away.

Hope all goes well with everyone else who are anxiously waiting like i was, more nerve wracking than when i was pregnant with my dd !!
well done mum, Glad you are keeping them both, remember to keep mum indoors as she can mate again from about 5 weeks onwards (My girl called at 5 weeks with 8 kittens) So spay her asap!
