Swollen belly, pink nipples, missed heat: Is my cat pregnant?

Question

Hello, I was wondering if my cat Mia was pregnant. Her stomach has grown Significantly. And her nipples have become larger and more pink than normal. My other cat, Molly, keeps hissing and clawing at Mia. She started doing this about a week after Mia got outside. Mia has also missed her heat cycle.

The signs you are describing certainly could be consistent with pregnancy, but Mia could also be suffering from a false pregnancy. This is when a cat shows the signs of being pregnant, but actually is not. The only way to know for sure if she is pregnant or not is to have her seen by a vet. I recommend giving a vet a call today to set up an appointment for her. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
