hello all. i've been researching, researching and researching and decided to just come and ask my specific questions. rather than relying on google to answer them all.
my little cat got out ages ago, she was super sneaky and when my partner went to the door she dived out. we tried catching her, but it was dark and she headed straight for the trees at the top of the garden.
i hunted for ages but couldn't find her.
quite a few hours later she came back when i called (after about the 1000th time).
i was worried at that point she may have been caught. only a few days later she was calling - so it eased my concern, thinking if she had been, she wouldn't be calling.
only last week, my mam says she noticed she had a belly. i never noticed, not even when she pointed it out. only now i can't deny it.she was crying for food practically every hour and has been for a while. up until 2 days ago. she doesn't want to play fight with my other cat as much either.
i'm wondering if she's coming to labour soon, as she has been sleeping the majority of the day, and night. she wakes up to groom herself, eat, groom some more and sleep again.
i've noticed the past few days she has been really restless come night time, crying and seems to be calling - she is cleaning herself a lot more these past few days and not eating as much.
when she has been crying and calling - she wants me to follow her upstairs. i have followed her everytime incase she is going into labour - only she just purrs loads, wants loads of cuddles and attention, and then lays down on the floor ...and goes to sleep. if i try to leave, she follows and goes back to the crying and calling again.
what i have noticed, is she isn't purring anywhere else in the house. she will not purr downstairs. only in my bedroom upstairs, when i am with her.
usually, she is a very loving and cuddly cat. she even jumps from the floor on to my chest she loves cuddles that much. and she is always purring...up until the past few days, where it's only in my bedroom!
i've set up nesting areas all over the house, just incase. she doesn't seem to be interested though. she just lays infront of the one i've made in my bedroom.
any advice on what you think might be happening would be greatly appreciated.
just to add - i will be getting her spayed as soon as all this is over!
thanx
