My pregnant cat is acting strange & has discharge. Is she in labor?

Question

Hi, my cat is 60 days pregnant. She started to act strange a few hours ago. She has been very loud. She has a creamy white discharge. She has been way friendlier than normal. And she will walk around and then lay down, do a few stretches while lying down and move again. I own over 30 goats who I kid out every year, but a cat is something I am absolutely not familiar with! I assume the discharge is the plug? In goats this happens weeks/days before due. Is it the same with cats? Is she in labor?

This could be Ajira's mucous plug. It can come out up to a week before labor occurs. Continue to monitor her, and if she reaches 69 days pregnancy with no signs of labor, take her into a vet immediately. Best of luck.
