Symptoms of cats before giving birth to kittens:

1. Before giving birth, the female cat’s abdomen is obviously enlarged and drooping, and the two rows of nipples that are not easily seen at ordinary times become clearly visible.

2. Before giving birth, the nipples of some female cats can squeeze out clear or milky white milk, and some even flow out automatically.

3. Before giving birth, female cats often look for a nest to use as a delivery room, and often do not want to come out after entering the delivery box.

4. On the day of delivery, female cats generally do not eat. Therefore, if there is no interference from disease, a female cat suddenly stops eating is an important sign of childbirth.

5. 12 to 24 hours before giving birth, the body temperature of the female cat will drop significantly by about 1℃.

6. A few hours before giving birth, the female cat’s uterus begins to contract. The female cat should feel uncomfortable during labor pains, become restless, lie sideways in the birthing den, and breathe rapidly.

7. During the interval between labor pains, the female cat may drink a lot of water. If mucus is found to flow out of the vagina of the female cat, it means that she is about to give birth again. At this time, the female cat should be returned to the birthing den.
