    Take her to the vet, if she is pregnant she needs a check up, if she isn't there's loads of things it could be including pyometra, phantom pregnancy or a hormone imbalance.
    When I had my loft converted back into a loft, the neighbours came around and scoffed, and called me retro.
  • Best thing to do is take her to the vets and get her checked out. They'll check her over and let you know. Even if she's not pregnant, it could be something else so it's worthwhile getting her checked over by a professional :)

    When my cat was pregnant she put on weight and seemed happy enough but the only real difference was the amount of food she eat and the fact that she stopped climbing up and out of the windows!

    I started feeding her on kitten food and giving her cat milk, she had 6 kittens which were all healthy!
  • Took her to the vets , yes she is!:j
    Vet also told me to feed her kitten food so have started straight away!
    Thanks to those who replied:T

    No matter where you prepare a bed for her to give birth, she'll choose somewhere else. My friend's cat gave birth in the middle of their bed, and they had to sleep on the floor :)
