Cat Pregnancy

Female cats can have a heat cycle anywhere from three to five times a year. The first time this happens may be as early as five or six months old or it may be that a cat will not have it's first heat cycle until it is a year old. Cats do not have any predetermined breeding cycle so a cat going into heat can happen at any time of the year.

A cat will usually have the kittens about 65 days after conception. It is hard for the first few weeks to tell if a cat is pregnant. It is important to allow the pregnant cat to have normal exercise and proper nutrition for the duration of the pregnancy. It can be an exciting time for your family to use the pregnancy of the cat to show young children
