When a cat gives birth, its abdomen will be obviously bulging and drooping, and the two rows of nipples will turn pink and become larger and more obvious. Some cats will also secrete milky white or clear milk. It is recommended that the owner take the cat to the pet hospital for a detailed examination. The veterinarian will make a judgment based on the number of pregnant cats and the birth canal, and then give the owner professional advice.

What are the preclinical signs in cats:

1. Cats will keep barking because of nervousness and anxiety before giving birth.

2. A cat’s body temperature will drop by about 1 degree Celsius 12-24 hours before giving birth.

3. Cats can express colostrum 1-2 days before giving birth.

4. Before giving birth, cats may lose their appetite or even stop eating.

5. The cat’s vulva will have discharge and the vulva will be flushed.

6. About half an hour after the cat’s amniotic water breaks, the cat will start giving birth.
