My heavily pregnant cat? Help.

I'm probably just being a worry bug.

My cat is heavily pregnant, yesterday i noticed that the babies inside her were really hard? Well today they don't feel like that anymore, and this evening she's laying on the table like normal but she's shaking? And her legs are twitching? She wasn't interested in her dinner, she just drank loads. I can still feel movement. She aslo vomited the other day and had runny poo yesterday if this helps. She isnt making any noises, like crying or anything.

Are these signs that she is about to have them?

Hopefully an experienced cat breeder will be along to advise ... If you are genuinely worried about your cat call your vet for professional advice. A forum can only give very general information.

Re: My heavily pregnant cat? Help.

With those symptoms, particularly shaking and twitching/muscle tremors in her legs, I think a trip to the vet would be advisable asap.

Re: My heavily pregnant cat? Help.

One of my girls legs don't exactly twitch but she pushes it out when the babies are making their way down. I think with this being all so new to you a word with the Vet may reassure you.

Re: My heavily pregnant cat? Help.

I don't like the sound of this, especially the shaking. If nothing has happened overnight, I think you need a vet trip, and you need it this morning while (hopefully) your vet is still within normal hours. It's hard to know without seeing the cat, but from your description, this could be very nasty. I do hope I have simply misunderstood. Please update asap.

Liz

Re: My heavily pregnant cat? Help.

Hope this poor cat has been seen by vet, what a crying shame cats are bred from when owners really have no idea

Breaks my heart, so easily avoided too, with a little thought ... There is so much help available with spaying/neutering.
