Bring it to the Vet
she'll start getting fat
You shouldn't ever have a pregnant cat! Your cats should all get spayed/neutered! There are soooo many homeless cats.we don't need to make MORE cats!
she will look very fat and her teats /nipples become very pronounced!
if you have any doubts, take her to the vets. they will tell you when the kittens are due.
ummm.she stops having her monthly period?
Yeah, she gets morning sickness %26 starts craving dog food
USUALLY AFTER SO MANY MONTHS, THEY ARE SHOWING. ANIMAL DON'T HAVE MORNING SICKNESS I DON'T THINK LIKE US WOMEN DO.
Take it to the vet. Another sign that she is pregnant, is that the local Ginger Tom is not hanging around anymore!
Her teats will get very pink! and she will be sleeping more and eating more. And of course her stomach will grow.
When my cat was pregnant she her belly protruded on the sides in a very pronounced way. Her nipples got bigger, and later I could actually feel the kittens moving inside of her. Right before they are ready to give birth they also tend to find a secluded spot in which to have the kittens. For the cats I had growing up this was usually in a dresser drawer or under or behind a large piece of furniture. After this litter you should strongly consider spaying your cat. I know it can be expensive, but if you check with your local pet store they can probably help you locate a low cost spay/neuter clinic in your area.

P.S. The usual gestation (the period of time for conception to birth) for a cat is about 9 weeks.
kittens
If you suspect she is pregnant, you will know within about a week and a half. Her stomach will grow quickly and you can see the kittens moving in her. You have to watch her though because when she becomes due, and if she is an outside cat, you will need to keep her in after about 3 weeks, because she will go off and have them somewhere and you might never see the kittens. The best place for an out side cat is in a garage or barn so the kittens will be protected.
cos in about 9 wks she will have kittens. the usual signs- gettin fatter,nipples gettin larger and makin beds in strange places.
well she will be getting bigger, she will be eating more, she will be sleeping more, and when she is pretty fat you can feel the kittens inside her.
let the vet determine that make an appointment with the vet
thank you
when they get fat and there not fixed
In the early stages of pregnancy, you can't really tell other than your cat will eat slightly more than usual. She may also be wanting more attention than usual too. As the pregnancy continues, you will notice that your cat gets bigger under her belly and as a result may start to walk differently than she usually does due to carrying excess weight. She will also start to sleep a lot more and sometimes can want more attention. If you you sit her on your knee and fuss her, you can gently feel her stomach. It is very easy to tell if she is expecting as it will feel firm. If she is pregnant, get a box and some blankets, ideally some old clothes of yours that you don't want anymore (this can be comforting for the cat when giving birth) and get her used to the box. The box should be placed in a dark, quiet place out of the way. Best place is under the bed.
her belly will get bigger and hard. she will start acting strange.
My cats don't get pregnant . all of our pets are spayed and neutered (microchipped and fully vaccinated, too.)
well, it depends if you used protection or not, I would always recommend a condom.

So, within a few weeks you will know, if it has a tash and big ears, it was not me !
