Hi SweeTie,

I'm really pleased to hear that all went well in the end for your pregnant kitty. It sounds as if she got pregnant before the date you thought she may have mated (7/16). But, I am genuinely happy and relieved for you :) Every pregnancy and birth pattern is different and no comprehensive text book on cat breeding can ever teach you or prepare you fully for what will happen.

This pregnant stray kitty was lucky to find you, otherwise she would have ended up having feral kittens on her own.

Enjoy every minute with the kittens as weeks fly by like days. Once the kittens have been weaned and have found new homes, I would suggest getting her spayed soon after as she may start calling again and she had a heavy going pregnancy that will have taken a lot out of her and she'll make a much happier and healthier family pet for you, and you won't have the anxiety, worry and vet fees like you've had with this pregnancy, to deal with again :)

Keep us posted on how the kittens develop.

All the best from my furry ones to yours.

Debbie.
