Jasmine is pregnant - help
Hi
This is my first post and I found this site by chance thanks to google. I have three cats, one is a pedigree siamese (Holly) 3, one an average tom (Pip)4 and the most recent addition to the family is Jasmine, a Bengal 1 1/2. We live with my 3 kids in Burton On Trent in England. Holly and Pip were both spayed after we bought them however Jasmine wasn't. I'd had her off a friend at work who'd told me that she'd been bred specifically for an owner who then pulled out having seen her Bengal behaviour (she is a bit wild at times). Since they're all house cats I'd thought we'd be fine. WRONG One night about 8 weeks ago she escaped when a friend opened a window downstairs. She wouldn't come in and started calling, literally within 5 minutes a huge ginger tom whom I'd never seen before chased her under our car on the drive. I spent about 30 minutes trying to get her to come back but torrential rain mean't I had to give up. From the sounds eminating from the car both my wife and I knew exactly what was going on. In all truth we didn't think she'd fall preganant so easily, how dumb. She is now very clearly pregnant. She is not as crazy as normaly,is less chatty and very swollen looking. I still give her lots of fuss and can see the babies moving around and kicking. Last week her nipples became huge and i thought the births were imminent. I wondered if anyone could give me any help with signs of an imminent birth? I have a nice big box ready for her and have placed a nice blanket on it. She is still eating lots and shows no signs of being off her food. Any advice would be massively appreciated. She is a gorgous cat and very loving and I want to ensure we do things right by her! This picture is about 6 months old. |
