Sorry this is so long, in advance...
I have had Zeke and Jordy for almost 4 years. They are both neutered. Noel was found at work on Christmas Eve. She is TOTALY scared of Zeke and Jordy, still. She hisses and shakes when I open the door to the guest room which is where she's been living. I have been trying to introduce them but she is so freaked out by Z & J that I feel so bad for her when I take her out. She is totally loving and purrs when I go in the room alone.
She was 5 lbs when I found her, and the vet said she was between 6 mos and 1 yr old. I'm guessing only 6 months cause she's so little (to me) She is now 6 lbs and she eats like a huge pig! She eats SO MUCH I can't believe it! She's always starving acting when I give her the food, which is several times a day MORE than I would expect to give her.
So she was supposed to get spayed in 2 weeks, when she goes back for her booster shots. But I have been wondering if because she is NOT spayed yet if that has something to do with her being such a freak and NOT ANY calmer around the other 2 yet. So she's going to get spayed this Friday.
The more I thought about it, the more I remembered when I took my cat to this same vet (different cat, 10 yrs ago) to get spayed. My stupid exbf let the cat outside before she went to get spayed. The vet told me after getting spayed, that she had been pregnant with 6 kittens. I was like, OOOoooookkkkkkkk... So you gave my cat an abortion????? I didn't say anything to the vet because I was pissed. But anyway now I'm remembering that, and that made me wonder if THIS kitten is pregnant which is maybe why she's so hungry and why she is so scared of the other 2 cats? I checked out her titties today and they are normal looking, tiny little pink bumps, nothing more. Is there any thing else I can check before I take her to the vet? And which would be worse, if she is pregnant, to let her get an abortion or to let a bunch of unecessary kittens in the world?
(For the record, and I don't want to start and argument, I just want your thoughts.... but for the record, I am pro-chioce in real life, though for ME I would never have an abortion. But since I have never been put in that situation, I would never push my beliefs on others... It's more involved than that but anyway, your thoughts please? And also, ho can I tell if she's pregnant??)
Thanks so much!
