However if she is producing milk I would say it's close. Though again, with her being so small and malnourished she could be producing milk early too.

OP ~ given that you say she is so small, how did you fail to notice her belly getting big? If she is that small you will have seen her pregnant belly developing weeks and weeks ago ... you would have had time then to get her spayed

Nothing you can do now though by the sounds of it

I'd definitely save for a possible c-section, and get her to a vet to be checked over. Then he/she will be prepared if a c-section is needed and will be familiar with your cat at least.

How old is she btw? Have you never heard her call, especially if as you say she only goes out an hour a day?

i have no idea what a call sounds like as i have never owned a full female and the cat in question was ment to have been spayed i was given FAKE documentation from the organisation she came from which they are now being investigated by police .... she was well fed by me which would mean she always had a round belly so no i did not notice untill now and also due to her being very fluffy and also when i did notice the round belly around a weeek ago i thought worms so i wormed her which did not help who would think pregnancy if she was ment to have been spayed

hope that answers all confusion lol i started getting confused myself hehe

When a cat is in call, there really is no mistaking it. They practically scream and wander around doing it. Also she would have been posturing (lifting her bum when you fuss her, and padding her back legs at the same time). OK, some queens have silent calls, but rarely, and I think it's mostly when an entire male is around, as she doesn't need to call then as he is right there.

Are you going to take her to the vet? She may well need a decent wormer for pregnant queens, not sure what wormer you used but some are dangerous to pregnant queens.

Also please don't shave her belly unless you need to after the birth. My girl plucked her hair in the last few days before the birth mostly. So you hopefully wont need to at all.

What a sad situation

I just hope your girl comes out of this OK.

i got the wormer from my vets it says on bottle its safe for pregnant queens....
she did make 1 funny meow but that was it i thought she was hurt so raced outside but she was fine i also never seen any other cat around so i have no idea who the father is

and thankyou for your kind words =)

ok so the girl at the back is the pregnant one cant get a pic of her belly yet as she wont lay still for me she in playful mode lol

Aurelia · #29 (**permalink**) 01-11-2010, 06:42 AM

She really is small

billyboysmammy · #30 (**permalink**) 01-11-2010, 06:53 AM

looking at the size of her I'm going to be very very blunt here.

Get her speyed NOW

Due to her size, history and no idea the size of stud she should be speyed immediatly. As she is lactating already then its fairly safe to assume she is due within the next 7 days (no hard and fast rules on that though, she could easily have another 3 weeks to go!). During the spey as the kittens are delivered they will be euthanised immediatly so that they dont suffer. You have no idea if her size could also be down to a genetic condition, and thats just not something i would risk with a litter.

I know thats probably not what you want to hear, but it comes from the heart. I dont take speying while pregnant as a flippant thing, its serious but sometimes the safest and kindest option all round.
