Is my pregnant cat nesting or just resting? How far along is she?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | American Bobtail Shorthair | Female | 1 year and 1 month old | 19 lbs

Thanks for you're help before, I have one last question. From they're pictures how far into the pregnancy does she look. She started very skinny. Also, I prepared a box with a towel and pillow so she can. Feel comfortable giving birth there. She has been there a lot lately, do you think its nesting or just resting

Just by looking at Cuddles, it's impossible to say how far along she is in her pregnancy. I would take her into the vet for x-rays to see how far along she is, and the x-rays will tell you how many kittens she is expecting. Best of luck.
