how long is a female cat pregnant? How can you tell how far along she is? im new at this. needless to say me and my boyfriend got two cats, a male and a female, and we didnt fix the male in time. Is there anything i should be doing while shes pregnant?

I think she would be pregnant about a month. And as ur not a doctor u cannot undrestand how far along she is because u dont know how many babies she has in her belly? maybe 1 maybe 4! and also there is nothig special u wanna do cause she will just shout as she wanna born her babies and should just feel sympathy by wiping her.
Can u believe that I helped my cat to born her 4 babies!!! Alone.

Pregnant around 63 days. She'll just get a really big tummy. If you don't know when she was bred, it will be hard to predict the date. Just make sure she has access to a good kitten food while pregnant and nursing. Ask the vet for a safe dewormer for a pregnant cat (pyrantel is safe). Have an area ready where she feels safe and hidden to have the kittens so you can keep an eye on things. She can get pregnant again right after giving her birth, so in the meantime you might want to get your boy fixed!

Feed her some half & half I did that wen a stray cat was pregnent, it'll help her w/ her breast milk and stay w/ her, at all
maybe u should hav the boyfriend work and u stay home because if stay home w/ her u'll be able to help her along wen she's in labor, don't let her out as she can run and find a place to have her kittens and u won't be able to find her and her kittens, oh and as the cat gets nearer to the day she has her kittens, she'll eat more and get more active

ihave had many prego cats you can tellhoww far along she is by gentle feeling around her belly you will be able to feel the kittens ,the harder or firmer she is she is do soon do not let her out .she might find a place to birth where you may not find her .try to make a bed out or blankets or somethings that have her sent.places like a closet floor are great keeping door ajar .get the male fixed now its cheaper than her.

you should be reading up about cat pregnancy and kitten care .. you have 64-65 days in which to learn.
contrary to popular belief being pregnant , giving birth and raising kittens does not come naturally for some cats.. they have no sex education classes at school ...and have no idea what is happening to them..it can all come as a big shock.. so you will need to be prepared and supportive.

you start seeing signs that she is due when she starts looking for places to have them like under beds in your closet any place quite and dark. there is not much needed to do but give her quite time and a nice dark place for her to maybe have her kittens.

you can take her to a vet to determine how far along, how many she will have. i would start feeding her purina kitten chow. it helps the babies.

Cats are pregnant for two months.And you are supposed to get your cat checked in on by a vet while shes pregnant.As far as exactly wat you should be doing, i would ask your vet.
