Cats can become pregnant after they are one year old. Female cats usually start to go into estrus around six months to eight months old, but estrus represents sexual maturity, not physical maturity. At this time, the female cat is not yet one year old, and her pelvis is not fully developed. In this situation Giving birth is very likely to cause accidents such as dystocia, stillbirth, etc. Even if the birth is successful, the physical condition of the kittens will be relatively poor. Therefore, breeding cats must reach basic physical maturity. Therefore, it is recommended that cats become pregnant after they are 1 year old. The risk of giving birth at this time is smaller than that of pregnant cats under 1 year old.

3. Keep your body dry. Pregnant female cats should not play on grass or in weeds, as they are prone to cat ringworm, cat fleas and other skin diseases. If the cat licks the medicine when taking the medicine, it will be detrimental to the health of the baby cat in the belly.

4. Don’t be frightened. Do not scare the female cat during pregnancy. If the cat is timid, it needs a quiet and independent space. Try not to contact strangers and try not to leave the house!
