The cat prompts the owner to call before giving birth to kittens. The cat is about to give birth at this time. Generally, the cat will start giving birth about 15 minutes after the amniotic water breaks. The cat will crawl to the delivery room, lie down and wait quietly for delivery. If the amniotic water breaks for more than half an hour and the cat shows no signs of giving birth, it is very likely that it is dystocia. It is recommended that the cat be sent to a pet hospital for examination immediately. Cats can become anxious before giving birth, and cats that are very trusting of their owners may nuzzle their legs.

The cat’s behavior in the days before giving birth:

1. The cat will have a decreased desire to eat, look for a nest, and be restless. At this time, the owner needs to pay attention to the cat. If there are other cats or animals at home, it is recommended to keep the cat who is about to give birth alone.

2. Cat nipples can express milk, which is the most representative feature of cats in the days before giving birth.

3. The cat’s body temperature will drop slightly a few hours before giving birth, and then return to normal body temperature.

4. If you find that the cat's body begins to tighten and appears to squat in the cat litter, this means that it will give birth soon.
