Pregnant cat: pink discharge, nesting, temp drop. Is labor near?

Question

My cat is about 8 weeks pregnant. Its her first litter. Shes about 18 months old. I noticed some pinkish discharge on her, shes also been sleeping in her nesting box and way more affectionate this morning. Her rectal temp is 100 degrees. Is she going to have her kittens soon?

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!
