Is this cat pregnant?

I get a regular visitor. She was a skinny wee thing before I started feeding her. She's looking chubby on the sides when you look straight down at her. I've tried to take pictures but she's a shy wee thing. No chip. Can't get a look at her nipples. She seems grumpier than normal. Any ideas?

Oh look how tiny they are!

So cute. Well done mumma. She’s definitely saying back off there isn’t she.

Omg 😍😍😍😍
So gorgeous 😍

Be prepared for Mum to move/hide the litter several times.
We watched our cat deliver a litter of 5 at the beginning of August. Mum moved them to the most bizarre locations every few days. During the heatwave, she even found them a shady spot outside!
We also did not handle them for the first couple of weeks as this can make Mum anxious.

ifIwerenotanandroid · 21/09/2022 23:35

Cuties! Thanks for the photos.

Hakunamatata91 · 21/09/2022 23:37

Awww how adorable 😍 thanks for sharing OP!

SmartCar · 21/09/2022 23:46

Yeah mum seems perfectly OK with me touching the kittens but not OH 🤣 she wolfing down some food but keeps stopping to have a check on the babies. Kinda hoping she does move them as she's decided the nest box in the bathroom was the best place to have them. Suppose it's very quiet in there hardly used. Would I be mental to put the heating on for them? They seem toasty warm

I see I'm late to the party but am I allowed to say squeeee here?

Lovely of you to take her in SmartCar. We adopted a pregnant grey cat 10 and a half years ago (not knowing she was pregnant, thinking it was just good that she was putting on weight Blush). We called her Smokey. Grey cats are very beautiful, I think!

Anyway there was not a grey kitten in sight... she popped out 4 tabbies (they are beautiful too of course). We kept two and a friend took the others. Sadly Smokey is no longer with us but her kittens are now pampered seniors!

TwoMonthsOff · 22/09/2022 01:04

unbelievably cute 🥰

Cosmicdreams · 22/09/2022 01:55

Awww so beautiful well worth the wait to see the cute kitties (been stalking this thread for a while 😅)

LadyOfTheCanyon · 22/09/2022 04:19

Gorgeous furry squeebles!

Pudmyboy · 22/09/2022 06:54

Just 😻😻😻😻😻
How lucky is she to have the perfect place to birth those beautiful kitties ❤
💐to you @SmartCar for looking after her so well !!
