Hey all, long story short; we rescued a cat and she turned out to be pregnant. She is huge, her nipples are swollen and the kittens have been kicking for a few weeks, for the past few days they have been moving around like made, it's making her uncomfortable. Well for the past 2 days she has been walking around a lot, and today her eyes have been really wide (random i know) She was in my sisters room climbing over shelves, under the bed etc. Whilst in there i noticed some gunky/slimy stuff near her back end, it was a tiny amount though. She has a nest but choses to sleep on the coffee table. Is she close to labour? What signs shall i look for?

dont really know about cats but sounds pretty close

have you created a nesting area for her and placed her in a quiet room with her litter tray and food? bought all the whelping items that you need?

Yes all that is done, she isn't really interested in the nesting area though, she prefers to sleep on the table

have you been putting her in it? where is it? is it her first litter? sounds like shes losing her plug so it could be soon

It's under the stairs, it's the only real safe place in the house. We have been putting her in it, yes. Right now shes sound asleep, i can see her belly going mad though

id keep her in one room, what about the lounge with the tv on low and in the corner? litter tray in there etc?

It is in the lounge, and i'm just in the corner on here. If her mucus plug has come out, would she been sound asleep, like she is? I can still her her belly going, she hasn't bothered eatingthis evening.

Another good sign delivery is on its way, many females stop eating prior to birth
