Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 11 months and 25 days old | 9 lbs
My cat is 54 days pregnant. She is having a ton of movement in her belly so I'm wondering if this is a sign of a lot of kittens. I'll see one huge kick or movement on one side and on the complete other side of her belly I'll see one too. I don't know if kittens move around in the belly so that's why there's movement on complete different sides or if they only stay on one side so if there's movement on both this means there's more than one. I'm sorry if I don't make sense. Plz let me know.

She's due very soon, as cats gestation period is generally 58-64 days give or take. Their uterus is actually V-shaped, and each horn can lie along either side of her belly. Once she has weaned this litter of kittens, I strongly recommend getting her spayed to prevent further litters and a number of health problems that are more likely to occur if she is not spayed.
