My pregnant stray cat is purring loudly and has a limp tail. Normal?

Question

Hi, theres this stray cat i have been feeding, she's very pregnant and purring very loudly is this normal? Also i think she has a limp tail, will this interfere with birthing?

It's normal for a cat to purr loudly, she's likely showing you love and affection. The limp tail may be due to a previously broken tail, and if there was nerve damage, it could interfere with birthing. It would be best if she was seen by a vet. If you don't want to assume financial responsibility for her, then I would see if there is a rescue organization that will take her in, get her veterinary care, and find her a home after her kittens are weaned.
