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?

You may find they'll just move in 😅 especially now it's getting colder

He's a few brain cells short of a full iq bless him
I have one like that. A really beautiful cat, sweetest nature in the world, just....genuinely slow compared to other cats. Just not very good at cat things. When she was young I asked the vet if there was something wrong with her. He inspected her and pronounced her a very healthy, very happy, very good-natured cat. I said, 'Why is she like this then?' This man looked me in the eye and said 'All mammalian intelligence follows a curve of distribution. Someone's got to be on the bottom'.

Skittens... I love it. They are so cute! Sadly I'm nowhere near the skittens!

We have a bigger kitten visiting us at the moment. It's been coming since it could barely eat solid food... it's much too young to be out! We know where it lives and is probably related to our cats on the father's side. AIBU to be considering a kit-napping 🐈?

You totally should, if you can! Kittens outside have a miserable and often short life.

I have a suspicion that black and white one may end up staying with you @SmartCar !

LadyOfTheCanyon · 27/09/2022 06:15

That nose is just asking for a boop.

They're so cute! Are you weighing them? They should be gaining approx 10g a day.

picklemewalnuts · 29/09/2022 13:40

Ooh, I like a drama Queen!
