Not every cat owner is able to understand in time that the cat will soon have a new addition. This should be known by those who decided to pick up a homeless cat or who pick up a pet from the dacha after the summer holidays.
Here are 4 surefire signs that your cat is pregnant.
First, behavior changes.
Think about it, if a domestic cat, which was previously kind and sociable, became nervous after a walk outside. It may be the other way around, an unsociable cat will start to climb on your hands.
The behavior will return to normal only after the kittens grow up.
Secondly, appetite changes
Along with appetite, gastronomic preferences may appear. The cat will start to refuse its usual food or periodically overeat. Take care of vitamins and other useful substances.
Thirdly, nausea will appear.
If vomiting does not stop within a day or two, you should in any case seek veterinary help.
Fourthly, the weight changes
A round belly does not always indicate good nutrition. If the cat's nipples are swollen and there is also an increase in body weight, then it is time to look for kind hands that will gladly accept cute kittens as a gift.
You can find out how many kittens will be born using an ultrasound scan at approximately 3 weeks of pregnancy.
