My pregnant cat (Chippy) is like to sleep more and eat more food. I can see kittens are moving in her belly. She is rolling around and I can see her big nipples are pink in colour. She always cleaning her body. Please tell me the date of delivery.

Cats are pregnant for about 60 days. You will start to. It’s e her mammary glands fill with milk around the 7th week of pregnancy. Their temperature will drop when it gets within 48 hours of labor and their appetite can decrease then. It is not uncommon to see a clear mucous discharge in the urine around a week before labor. Without knowing when she was in heat and bred these signs are the best guide to let you know about delivery.

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.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Cats are pregnant for 60-63 days so she has 4-7 days technically, but they can give birth earlier or later. If she is in stage 1 labor you’d expect kittens in 10-24 hours. Good luck!

The gestation period for cats is anywhere from 64-66 days, so you can expect the kittens this number of days from when she hooked up with the male cat. If you are unsure of when that is, then think back to when she was showing signs of being in heat. Here is a website link with more information on kitten care and pregnant cat care to help answer any more questions you may have. --> https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4952101 I hope that things go wellf or your pregnant cat Thunder moving forward.
