What are some signs that a pregnant cat will show when she is about to have her kittens?

making a nest and getting rest less

Here is where u can find everything you need to know all in one comvinent place- http://www.myhealthycat.com/cats-giving-birth-to-kittens.html

Watch her for her favorite hiding places. When she is gone for a long time look in her hiding place and you’ll find her there because she is getting ready to birth her kittens. I’ve had several litters born in my closet when I was younger. It is amazing to watch them be born.
You can help her out by getting her either an old blanket or a box lined with the old clothes for her birthing area. Put it in her hiding place & she’ll do the rest.

Just before she will meow allot and pace

making nests by getting ur cloths if not kept away lol she will meow like mad

Your cat is due to go into labour around the 64th day of her pregnancy, although it is very unlikely that you will be able to be that accurate in your calculations. Instead, you will have to rely on your ability to ‘read the signs’ of the stages of pregnancy and of her impending labor.

Initially, your cat will almost double the amount of food that she wants to eat and it will be obvious that her kittens are moving around in her abdomen.

Also, she will have been displaying ‘nesting’ behaviour – looking for a safe, warm and quite place in which to give birth. Hopefully, you will have already provided a suitable ‘nesting box’ for her to use, otherwise you may find that she has chosen to give birth in the middle of your bed!

Then, as your cat nears the start of her labor, her appetite will reduce dramatically. It may even disappear completely.

A third sign to watch for is the demonstration of ‘clingy’ behavior, with your cat constantly seeking your company. As the birth becomes closer, you may see her pacing around nervously or she may become rather excitable.

A further indication that things are about to happen is when you cat begins to ‘call’. This is a very distinct and unmistakable sound and there is no danger of you not recognising it!

As the time approaches, you will see your cat repeatedly licking her bottom as she reacts to changing sensations in her body as she prepares for the birth of her kittens.

Finally, as your mother cat begins to feel the onset of her contractions, she is likely to appear anxious and uneasy. She will repeatedly enter her nesting box and ‘tread’ the nesting material as she seeks to arrange it to her liking.

When you witness this last behavior, you can be certain that the birth of your new kittens has begun.

I hope that your cat has a healthy litter of kittens!

Well, a friendly stray just welcomed me to the neighborhood by having kittens on my back patio and this is what I observed:

The last week or so, she didn’t move around much at all, just slept either on the blanket I put down for her or in the little cushy kitty house I bought for her when I realized she was a stray and not one of the neighbor’s pets. The closer the time came to giving birth, the longer it took her to get up and come over to me when I went outside. Usually she would jump right up and waddle over to me before I was halfway to her. In the last few days, however, I would pet her and be nearly finished watering my plants before she managed to get up. She also started eating less and became pickier, turning her nose up at the wet food she normally scarfed down at record speeds and mostly eating the dry instead. She took to drinking muddy water from one of my pot plants that doesn’t drain properly, too, instead of the fresh water I put out for her twice a day. I thought maybe she had a tummy ache and the muddy water helped soothe it.

The last two days before she gave birth, she barely ate at all. In fact, I don’t think she ate ANYTHING in the twenty-four hours leading up to her labor beginning. I was very worried because, except for her big tummy, she started to lose weight. (I could feel her back and hip bones much more when I stroked her.) She also developed a tendency to disappear into the dark maze of boxes in my garage for long periods of time and wanted a lot of attention and loving in those last two days. I think if she could have spent the entirety of that last pregnancy day in my lap, she would have.

I appear to be allergic to this cat and can’t bring her inside until I figure out a way to bathe her once a week without getting severely clawed, so I prepared a big box for her in my garage, where she and the kittens can be sheltered, safe and warm, thanks to a wall heater. I put a cushion down in the bottom of the box, covered it with heavy duty plastic, then put two layers of clean, folded sheets on top of that. You’ll definitely want to put plastic down in the bottom of your box beneath the sheet or blanket and have a clean sheet or blanket ready to replace the wet, bloody, soiled one the next day because the birthing will be very messy.

Also, you might want to look up information about newborn kittens now so you’ll know in what temperature range the kittens’ environment should be kept as well as what is normal newborn kitten behavior and what might be signs that a kitten is “fading” or weakening and should be taken to a vet.

As an added note, three weeks after giving birth, the mama cat is still very picky about her food. She won’t touch wet food, which used to be her favorite, anymore, just the dry. And she’s still drinking that muddy water.

I hope this helps and that your cat and her kittens are all healthy!
