The Wait Is Driving Me Crazy!!

Well, my little runt that we got/saved go out what seems like forever ago and now we're waiting on kittens!! For the longest we weren't even sure if she was pregnant or not because she's not the most loving cat in the world. She's more of a touch me not girl whereas the 2 huge males we have are all huggie boys (both from pound & fixed!)

We're super sure kittens are right around the corner! As tiny as she is these kittens seem huge so I'm worried that she may have problems. I've been reading up on all this since my only female cat I had had 1 small litter (3 kittens) and never knew she was pregnant and was told she was fixed.

It says that the queen gets more on the cuddling side and that hasn't happened, in fact she growls at her belly when they start moving around and if I put a hand out and touch her she attacks me. More often now she does want me to run her belly to calm them back down but she hasn't looked for a spot yet. I made her a nice box up but she wants it out here with everyone not away in the bedroom.

I noticed last night when I finally got her to get in it she was leaking a little milk from jumping in and out playing with her boys. They have taken turns giving her baths and laying with her so I think they will be very interested when she goes into labor!

I'm hoping the pacing and growling that she has started again means we have labor on the way....but she has kept on eating!! I'm talking stealing sandwich, getting into a bag of chips and begging for anything I have. She even ate carrots and had chicken broth last night out of my chicken soup!

Well I'm off to go sit on the floor with her and rub her belly since she's overthere growling!
