my cat is pregnet what do i do?

Answer 1

First, learn to spell.
Second, what do you mean "what do I do"?? It's not you who are pregnant. If you're going to let her have the kittens, then just make sure you can find good homes for them when they are 6-8 weeks old.
Momma cat can handle the rest just fine.
And get her FIXED afterwards!!

Answer 2

What do you mean what do you do? You either see the cat through its pregnancy (with the help of a licensed veterinarian) and find good homes for the kittens, or you put a stop to the pregnancy by having the cat spayed (and aborting its fetuses).

If you don't know how to handle the cat's pregnancy, you shouldn't have allowed it to become pregnant. That's what SPAYING is for.

Answer 3

Where do you go from here? Your first major decision is whether or not to allow the condition to continue. Pregnant cats (called "queens"), can be spayed, but the decision will depend on a number of factors, which you should discuss with other family members, along with your veterinarian. Here are some questions, along with things you'll need to consider:

* How "far along" is the queen's pregnancy? Although early and mid-term spay and abortion of pregnant cats is common, late-term abortion is generally not done. If this is your own cat, you can estimate by the date of her last "heat." Otherwise, a veterinarian can estimate the term for you.
* How old is the cat? A very young cat (under one year) or an older cat (eight years and older) may have a hard time with birth, with the possibility of deformed or stillborn kittens.
* What is the cat's general physical condition? If she is in an overall good condition and in late-term pregnancy, you may decide to let the pregnancy continue to parturition (birth), depending on other factors.
* How well-equipped is your household for caring for newborn kittens? This is a huge commitment, and everyone in your home will be involved at one point or another. If you have a "safe room" where you can confine mother cat and kittens safely from the intrusion of other cats, dogs, small children and the like, you may be okay. Otherwise (in the case of a stray), you should probably turn the job over to experts, such as local rescue organizations.
* How equipped are you to place the kittens and mother cat? If you are one of those families who have "plenty of room" for more cats, and can afford the additional furballs, bless you. If you're thinking of a "free to a good home" ad, better think again. A guest columnist wrote a helpful article for rehoming kittens, in "Have Kittens - Will Travel."
* Which is the more humane decision? In the case of a pregnant feral or stray, would it be more humane to spay her and put her back onto the streets, or to try to rehabilitate her for placement into a new home with or without her kittens.

The Gestation Period

Let's assume you've decided to let your queen have her kittens. You probably have a number of questions, such as, "How many kittens will she have?" or "When will she have them?" The second question is easier to answer than the first; a queen's gestation period typically runs from 57 to 69 days, with the average of 63 to 64 days. I like to use "63," because it is nine weeks, equating to human pregnancy average of nine months, making it easier to remember. Of course, your queen will have her kittens when she is going to have them, so these figures are only for your benefit, to be able to approximate the time.

The number of kittens to a given litter is a different subject. Litters can range from one to eight or more kittens, although either end of the range is fairly rare. Let's say an average of two to five kittens, with maximum numbers present between the ages of two and eight (of the queen). If you are really curious, your veterinarian may be able to give you a "head count" by palpating the abdomen, most successful between 25 and 35 days after mating. Ultrasound is another safe tool for verifying pregnancy, as well as for counting the embryos. Go to website below, it has lots of info.

Answer 4

You can either let her go through the pregnancy and have her fixed after the kittens are born, or, and I hate to say this, you can take her to the vet and have her fixed now (cold but can be and sometimes is done). Only you can make that decision.

Remember to always spay and/or neuter your pets.

Answer 5

What do you do about what? You've already done enough by not getting your cat fixed in the first place. Now you can just sit and wait for her kittens to add to the unwanted pet population.

Answer 6

Well.......cats have been having babies for thousands of years. What you SHOULD have done is gotten it spayed. Too late. Now you have more cats to get spayed. Become a responsible owner. Pets cost money!

Answer 7

they're diverse species, they could't have any offspring. often times some very very close species would be waiting to have sterile offspring ( tigers and lions can quite produce a liger.... notwithstanding it quite is sterile... and tousled). yet cats and dogs are way too far aside genetically to allow that. Sorry. and you're quite twisted in case you want to observe that.

Answer 8

just call your vet and give he/she will give you further instructions oh and dont listen to the things other people keep saying your cat is going to bring lovely catsinto the world that someone is going to ove having

Answer 9

Don't worry about that jerk that said you shouldm have spayed her he knows nothing and i do because i rock! get a box for her and be prepared once she has them make sure she feeds her kittens and make sure thay have enough room and heat. as for right now take care of your mommy-to be kitty make sure she gets enough food because if she doesnt she will not feed the kttens and they will die. this almost happend to my kitten, m.k , her mom was so skinny her momma kitty would not feed her kittens. Mommy cat should be warm and comfortable, and get lots of love. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 10

not alot of people know this but you can abort them and have the mom fixed at the same time. as to the cost I don't know. but how much will a litter of kittens cost you?
