My pregnant cat is nursing. Will it delay her labor at 63 days?

Gestation is about 63-65 days, so you should be seeing signs of labor soon. If your timing is right, it should be any day now. You may be slightly off on your timing and maybe she has been pregnant for less time than you think? Look for signs of labor such as nesting behavior, vocalization, being more affectionate, licking the vulva and a change in appetite. Cats do not always give clear signs of labor like dogs so it can be tricky sometimes to notice when a cat is in labor. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Cats can go up to 68 days of pregnancy, so I wouldn't worry just yet. Set up Mano in her own room with a nesting box, food, water, and litter. Have her seen by a vet if she reaches 69 days of pregnancy with no signs of going into labor.

Hello. The average gestation is 63 days, but if all is OK in that Silvy is eating & acting fairly normal, then I would give her a few more days. It is possible that your dates may be off by a few days, or she bred on additional days. As long as there is no problems with her overall health, she will deliver when ready ( & she does look ready ). Any concerns, please see your veterinarian.

While some people notice a change in the nipples when a cat is pregnant it is not a very accurate predictor. I think you should see a veterinarian to confirm the pregnancy and make sure the kittens are okay and not in distress. Occasionally cats will need help with labor either through medical management or a c-section and if she is 63 days today it would be a good idea to check for signs of fetal distress.

Don't panic! Unless you know exactly when she ovulated, you don't know exactly when she is due. Cats have an average gestation of 65 days from the time of ovulation, and she may have ovulated days after she was bred. Hang in there, and watch for signs of nesting, restlessness, and inappetence.

There is no way we can predict the date of delivery, gestation ids approximately 63days. Labor begins with nesting and restlessness which progresses to active abdominal contractions and fluid discharge which should last no longer than 2hours before the delivery of the first kitten

I would take Pepsi into a vet immediately. A cat's pregnancy can last from 58-68 days, but if this end point is reached with no signs of kittens, then veterinary attention is needed. She needs evaluation from a vet to determine if she needs help with giving birth. Please take her into a vet now.
