Generally, female cats can continue breeding after a 3-month interval between lactation periods. Female cats can give birth to two litters a year. The gestation period of a female cat is generally about 2 months. She will nurse the kittens for 2 months and then give them a month or two to recover before becoming pregnant again. She can give birth to two litters a year. As long as the female cat is in good health, she can wait a while after giving birth before getting pregnant again.

Signs of pregnancy in female cats:

1. After 21 days of pregnancy, the female cat’s nipples will turn pink or red.

2. As the baby cat grows in her belly, the mother cat’s weight will gradually increase by about 1 to 2 kg.

3. The abdomen is gradually enlarged. Do not perform abdominal palpation at this time, as this may cause serious harm to the fetus.

4. Behavior changes, the female cat will become more cautious and maternal.

Dietary considerations for female cats during pregnancy:

1. Calories in the early stages of pregnancy should be increased slightly so that the female cat’s weight can increase steadily.

2. The caloric requirement is about 100Kcal/kg/day.

3. Generally, kitten cat food can be provided to pregnant female cats, because the proportion of nutrients in kitten cat food is relatively balanced.

4. Do not over-supplement nutrients, as this will make the kitten bigger and easily cause dystocia for the mother.
