How to tell your cat is pregnant?
Unless you’re breeding your cat chances are you won’t know your cat is pregnant until she is well along in the gestation period. The mother doesn’t begin to bulge noticeably until a couple of weeks before delivery time. Here are a few signs and symptoms you may see if your cat is pregnant:
Nipples will begin to enlarge and become more soft and pink (this is the #1 sign)
Weight gain, especially around the mid-section
Increase in appetite, this usually occurs close to birth
Some cats may become more affectionate than usual
Cats may also exhibit morning sickness
Nesting activity begins

I wouldn't recommend feeling inside her tummy as only a trained person should do this. Cat start to gain weight towards the end of pregnancy so a weight gain may be an indicator but not a guarantee. She is highly likely to be pregnant if she got out whilst in season. later stages of pregnancy will show mammary development and swollen abdomen. I would strongly advise you to go to a vet, pregnancy lasts 65days approx, Personally i'd get her spayed either way, there's far to many unwanted cats already

There's no way to tell by yourself. If you want to save money and you're not taking your cat to the vet to do so, in the long run, taking your cat to the vet will save you a lot of money. You can have her spayed even if she is pregnant. Take her, get her spayed now then you won't have to worry about feeding the babies and finding them homes. Be a responsible pet owner or don't be a pet owner at all!
A intact female cat and her female offspring could produce up to 420,000 kittens in 7 years, please don't be part of this process.

Try to feel little nut sized shapes along the sides of her belly... She will get large very quickly also.
GOOD LUCK

feel her belly and if her nipples are hard then she is pregnant. This is the easiest way to tell before she phisically shows.
