We took in a stray female cat - could she be pregnant?
We took in a stray female cat - could she be pregnant? Other Pet Discussions
I've looked at quite a few questions relating to stray pregnant cats, but they always have the detail that they see that her nipples have grown. I haven't noticed that in Calypso (Calley-Kitty) but she's rather large in the abdominal area and it's firm - not like a rock, but still pretty firm. She's affectionate, which I heard was a sign. She's tiny everywhere else, though, and eats a little every hour and a half. She's got a cold and ear mites, we're taking her in to the vet in a few days. Could any of this mean she's pregnant? Also, she isn't threatened by our dogs when they get close, so I'm thinking that she might not be pregnant, but I'm not sure. I've had her about 2 days now and have finally convinced my family to keep her. (They might change their minds if she is!)What does everyone think? Worms might be a possibility, but I want to make sure. If you think it is worms, about how much money does it cost to fix that?I already have a date set up at the vet. We bought stuff for ear mites and stuff yesterday, but on the label it says it can't be used on sick cats, and since she has a cold, I don't think I can give it to her. I am just impatiant when it comes to my curiosity. I'm not an idiot - I know I can find these things out at the vet. I just want to know as soon as possible.
