    In these circumstances, everything I have found says you can spay a cat even if she is still nursing, and she will still produce milk for her kittens. It is a slightly more difficult surgery, so check with your vet if their office would be okay with that. Usually it is recommended to wait until kittens are weaned, but as a cat can get pregnant again a week after giving north, and you have no control over her, really, they may make an exception.

    the best time to spay is once the kittens weaned about 4 weeks

    We had several days of rain, one of which was exceptionally bad and Mama Kitty hasn't been seen in days. I keep checking my shed and elsewhere but she just isn't around. She was quite heavy w/kittens so I'm fearful that she might not be in a safe place. She was so hungry when she appeared last time that as I was spooning out the food, she was catching it mid-air, poor girl. I pray that she and her kittens, if she's delivered, are safe and healthy.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I saw her a little while ago. She was probably looking for food and I was on my way out to fill the dishes but when she saw me, she ran, which isn't like her at all. She's super friendly and loves me. She ran so fast that I wasn't able to tell whether or not she's still pregnant.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    At least you saw her! .. so she's not far away. Continuing prayers that she will come home to you and have her kittens, or if they're already born you'll find them shortly and bring them home too.
