My cat has been meowing very loudly every time we pick her up. We think she is pregnant because she has a round belly and large nipples. The thing is she isn't very affectionate, but very unaffectionate! Is she pregnant or not!

YES it could be a false alarm .. that sounds like both .. but it sounds like more prego then in heat.
Okay. my female just had babies 3 weeks and 4 days ago.
She had a big belly AND big nipples for about 1 1/2 months .. gradually getting bigger.
Thats really how you tell, the nipples .. the hair will seperate from the nipple and it will look like a ring around them .. and they will be extrememly pink.
My cat got VERY affectionate .. but some are the complete opposite, like you said.
Put your ear by her belly .. when i did, i heard sounds as if she had an upset stomache (gergling).
Another way you can tell is if shes a normally skinny cat and you see her sides sticking out when you look down at her.
She became prego the first week of April and had her kittens June 2nd .. so i hope that helps with trying to figure out if shes prego.
If she was an outside cat and thats how she got prego make sure you keep an eye on her. If you can DO NOT let her out .. theres just too many strays, you dont want her to have them outside. And be ready for still births. If she was outside and mated with a sick male, some kittens MIGHT NOT survive.
All my cats are inside only .. i rescued a male cat who wasnt fixed and thats how she got prego, we thought we got him fixed in time, oops .. buut it was a good mistake lol :)
IF YOU NEED ANY HELP WITH HER PRENANCY PLEASE EMAIL ME .. I CAN WALK YOU THRU EVERYTHING! :)
good luck

Is your cat registered for breeding? If not she should be spayed. Large pink nipples and a round belly are typical of a pregnant cat. She wouldn't necessarily be any more or less affectionate. A grumpy cat won't turn into a lap-warmer just because she is pregnant. Around 3 to 4 weeks after a pregnant cat's nipples change (we call it pinking up) you should be able to feel the babies kicking.
If your cat is not a registered breeding queen then please have her spayed as soon as possible. If she is pregnant then please act responsibly and raise the kittens as best you can. Do not let them go to new homes until they have had their full course of vaccinations and are at least 13 weeks old. Please get the mum cat spayed as soon as her milk starts to dwindle.

If she's over 4 months old and has been outside at all, or around any uncastrated toms, 95% chance she's pregnant! Whether she's affectionate or not has nothing to do with it.
If her belly is already big she's probably too far gone to be spayed, so you've got kittens on your hands. Do your research, find out about proper birthing/kitten care. And get the mother spayed after they are weaned!

YES - a found male can breed a cat now not in warmth and get her pregnant. Cats are prompted ovalators and do not liberate the eggs until bred. Get her for your vet and get her spayed now - she must were performed by means of three-four months historic and also you could now not must fear approximately it.

She is pregnant. I have a cat right now who is pregnant. She is mean, She hates it when her other kittens come near her,(she had some kittens in Feburey), She eats Alot of food, and she hates being touched. If you're cat has this symotoms, She is pregnant.

If she isnt affectionate right now, and is in 'labor' than it is fake labor and she faked her pregnancy. When a cat is pregnant whether before getting pregnant she was affectionate or not.....she will be very clingy and affectionate if she is pregnant. I would take her to the vet and have then test her for pregnancy. Good Luck.

She is probably pregnant, meaning it isn't a heat cycle. Only a vet can tell you for sure.
If the nipples have already enlarged, it is late in the pregnancy. Please get her spayed as soon as the kittens have been weaned.
