After a pet cat successfully mates, it officially enters the pregnancy period. The gestation period of cats is generally about 63 days, but premature birth or delayed birth may also occur. But no matter which case it is, cats have their own special symptoms and phenomena before giving birth. Breeders can accurately judge the time when the cat will give birth based on these signs.
