Pregnant?

[Taz_Zoee]

I've been following this thread and I also think they should help you in some way. Regardless of your male cat being fixed. That is totally NOT the point here.

But, have you figured out if she is in fact expecting?

[moosmom]

I would tell you, softly and without judgment, that it WAS your biggest issue about 2 months ago.

Screw the softness. Don't sugar coat it Johanna.

It's not your biggest issue right now??? That's it, close your eyes and the "issue" will go away. There is a line in my signature that I swear by "I'm tired of stupid, irreponsible pet owners".

It's people like you who leave us animal rescuers scrambling, trapping, spaying/neutering and vaccinating YOUR disposable pets out of our own pockets.

Disgusting.

that´s a bit too harsh.. IMO... if the boy cat was her only boy and the girl cat was supposedly spayed.. she as many of us would assume they´d be no problem if they were together... yes, he might have been neutered before but in her case that was not a problem (inside cat, not spraying, maybe in the future she was planning to...healthwise.. who knows)

but still THAT is not her biggest issue right now.. right now HER biggest issue is the possible mom cat and possible babies OR possible disease.. and I don´t think it´s nice to be rude with now...

IF both were unaltered and left together.. well that´s another story... anyone knows what can happen then.. but she was TOLD by the SPCA the cat was ALREADY spayed...

Very well said. I totally agree although I do believe in spaying and neutering all of my animals for health reasons and so they won't reproduce. Hopefully both cats will be fixed so this won't ever happen again.

I'm not being an irresponsible pet owner...He was the only cat I had for about 2 years. When we got trixie i thought she was going into heat, but i wasn't sure. I've never owned a female cat before, so I was a little confused...thought she was just acting like that for some strange reason. I've had her almost a year now, and she just now got pregnant? landon doesn't even like her. And considering i thought she was fixed...fixing landon didn't seem like an issue...he wont even get within 5 feet of her.

moosmom, I understand where your coming from...i used to work in a shelter and I know how things are. But in my current situation...I have no control over whats happened. I can only make the best of it. I plan on keeping a kitten, and I have a bunch of amazing people who are willing to take some once they're born.

And there's no way she's not pregnant...she's doubled her weight and she's constantly looking for a place to have them. She waddles all over the place, and is being extremely affectionate...even more so than normal. I'm just waiting for her to pop now.

They, and the kittens will be getting fixed.

So is it confirmed that she's pregnant? Did you take her to a vet? If she really is pregnant, I'm glad to hear that she'll be getting spayed after the babies are weaned and that you'll be able to keep at least one of her kittens and have other homes lined up for some of the others. I hope that everything will go well.

I do have one question though. Will you also be neutering your male cat? If not why? Even if he didn't like your female cat her going into heat made him want to mate with her since he's not neutered. He could also easily get outside and do the same thing to another female cat in heat or even get into a cat fight with another male cat. For his health and safety please neuter him.

could it be a psycologial (sp?) pregnancy?... it shows all the symptoms too.. except for babies in an x ray or ultrasound...

[Catty1]

I think waiting a week or so will prove if she is pregnant or not...especially if kittens arrive!
