Pet's info: Cat | Bengal | Female | 1 year old
My pregnant cat sleeps always and I can see her big nipples are pink in colour. She always cleaning her body. She is rolling around and kittens are moving in her belly. She is eating food normally. Please tell me about her labour and tell me the date of delivery. I want to know about labour.

There is no way we can predict the date of delivery, gestation ids approximately 63days. Labor begins with nesting and restlessness which progresses to active abdominal contractions and fluid discharge which should last no longer than 2hours before the delivery of the first kitten

I cannot tell you such a thing, there are only two ways to know the approximate date, the first one would be if you know when she got pregnant, then you should count 64-67 days from that date, the other option is to have an ultrasound done by a vet. according to your description it sounds like she is very close to delivery but i can't tell you when exactly, it could be a day and it could be one week.

Without seeing Wonder in person, it's impossible for me to say how long it will be until she gives birth. A cat's gestation is typically between 58-68 days, so if she is around that time, she could give birth any day. Cats who aren't pregnant can produce milk if they have a false pregnancy, and the kittens nursing on her can stimulate milk production, so what you are seeing may not be an indication that she is due to give birth soon. You can take her into the vet to get an idea of how far along she is in the pregnancy and when she may be due. Best of luck.

Hello Lovely may begin to create a nest such as gather up blankets, or toys in a hidden place where she may be comfortable to deliver her kittens. She may also begin to hide more and she will begin to grow her mammary glands. Pregnancy in cats may vary from 62-67 days. Hope this helps and best of luck.

If they did not give you the correct information regarding the pregnancy date, then the only way to find out how far she is is to have an ultrasound done at the vet's office, all other signs will not tell you much regarding the timeline.
