Well she done that then moved into her house, so nothing so far, phew  ;D Thanks for that Teresa I know nothing about cat birth, something to remember  :) I think Im just going to pad her house out and also get a big box and put that beside it, hopefully she will know what its for.

Im not getting what you mean about the smell, what will I smell when she is in labour? Also when the waters break, what happens then?  :-:

I think she will be fine wherever she chooses to have them, everything is already covered in cat  :evillaugh:

Pics I know, Ive been having a hard week so thats at the bottom of my list, but will do I promise  :)

CC a female with scratch about with a nesting instinct for last couple of weeks of pregnancy, I`m afraid I would move her to a box before birthing rather than after.
Smell there isnt anything obvious or unpleasant.

Yes vet thinks Saffi is only 9 months old, and Im going to be inundated with Tortie madness soon enough  :Crazy:

Right I have pics on my phone...just got to figure out what to do with them  :evillaugh:

Bonnie had the same thought as me, when I first read your post about the vet visit I thought you were telling us she's 9 months PREGNANT! :shocked: :evillaugh:

We like "herb" names in our house too. All the tabbies or tabby tortis that have lived here have had a herb name. Parsley, Sage and Rosellas furbabe Noni. ;)

Right, It had to be me but "Noni" ?  :-: :shy:

No pics as of yet, later tonight I think  :)

Just want to say she is doing really good, been out sunning in the back garden, explored all of the house ect Its like she has always been here, she is not fussed at all  :shocked:

Still lots of hissing at my others but they are scared of her so been really good and leaving her alone, that can be cured with time Im sure  :)

Going to vets today to see how far on she is, her nipples are big and the pregnancy is noticeable  :scared: She has made herself at home on the top bunk of the kids bed, eating and using the litter tray good  :)

I really dont know how she has been mated as she seems to hate/ be scared of other cats  :Crazy:

Cat proofing is up....just need someone to try it out  :sneaky:

I dont know Gillian, Im going to take her to vets with me tomorrow so hopefully I will know more then  :)

I dont really want to ask this but feel I have to, its confusing me.....her vagina is swollen  :-: what could this be, is this normal for a pregnant cat?

Im glad I got her really, now her and her kittens will be safe and grow up in a cat mad home  :) Of course I mean till the kittens are 12 weeks old  :naughty: oh God  :rofl:

I really hope I can part with them, I couldn't with my rabbits  :shify:
