Stray kitten -- 13 weeks.?

Question

Okay, so here it goes. A stray kitten happened to be clawing my window and crying loudly, so I went out and got her and brought her inside. Lord knows how dangerous it can be out in the dark streets full of cars and loud dogs.

Anyway, I took her to the vet, she was weighed and calculated at being 13 weeks old. un-desexed, un-microchipped and without a collar. I have put adds in newspapers, online and on community boards. Because she is well groomed and seems quite healthy.

We've been feeding her Advanced (free from vet) and now we're trying Whiskas. But, her stomach is now bloated. Heavily bloated and I know there's tom cats hanging around. Is there a chance she can get pregnant at so young, if not, why would she be so bloated and what can I do to fix it?

She's otherwise healthy, extremely active and extremely affectionate.

Thanks for any answers.

Answer 1

I don't think she is pregnant. Just don't give her as much food as u used to so her tummy doesn't fill up so quickly. :)

But if u really want to know if she is pregnant or not, ask  ur vet!

Answer 2

Yes, she can get pregnant at that age. As for the bloated problem. Get a car and drive it over her belly. The bloatishness should come out her a**s.

Answer 3

Call a vet.  

Answer 4

my cat was exactly the same!

she wasnt exactly that young but less than a year.

only thing i have to warn you about though, im not sure if this was just my cat or its just how young she is, but she has 4 kittens in total and the killed 2 of them because they werent cooperating :[

she just wouldnt feed them, and she still wont act like a mother to her two other ones.

i sure hope that is only how my kitty is, and good luck with yours if she is pregnant. keep a close watch though!

Answer 5

your kitten could have worms.

Answer 6

At the age your kitten is now, she can still get pregnant. I would advise you not to put her out in the wild where the tomcats can get to her. Have her desexed and microchipped as soon as possible with the vet, that way you can enjoy her company for much longer, knowing she is safer and more placid.

Our female cat looked quite young when she adopted us, and she got pregnant in no time. There's two male 'suitors' in our area who actually look similar. Before we got to make the decision to keep her and get her desexed, she showed signs of being pregnant.
