My cat is meowing constantly and won't stop licking herself, she has a pinkish brown discharge. How soon until her kittens are born?

Cats are pregnant for about 9 weeks. If she is having discharge it should be soon. If you notice her straining or she becomes lethargic you should take her to her veterinarian as they can develop a dystocia (when a baby gets stuck) as this is an emergency.
