Lilo Just Turned One And Pregnant!!!

I have a female cat called Lilo, she has just turned one and she is 60 days pregnant today, so we are expecting the pitter patter any day now :)

I am so excited but nervous after reading such sad stories! She is a small cat and has a huge bump, she looks like she has swallowed a football! I have no idea if the number of kittens is linked with bump size though bless her she is so heavy!

I have been seeing her babies kick for over a week now, and she likes me to tickle her belly and the kittens are very active moving all the time and kicking me, it's very cool! I can feel them moving under my hand :)

I can't wait to see how many she is having and what colours! She is a torby(toiseshell/tabby) so anything is posible!

She is enjoying being pregnant, but is not enjoying this heat! She has been eating so much food but not so much the last 2 days.

I have made her 2 nest boxes in our bedroom as it's the only quiet room really, but she hasn't showed any interest in them! I'm having real issues trying to keep her indoors the little minx but she better get used to that until she is fixed at the vet!

Oh I just can't wait! I will try to update as and when she decides those babies are fully coooked, I hope it's soon!!!
