cat pregnancy help needed!!

Question:
 About a year ago i nursed an abandoned cat back to health. She was so small and underfeed when i found her that at first i thought she was a squrriel so thats what i named her. She is still pretty small for an adult cat and is going through her first pregnancy. She has been pregnant nearly two months so i think that the babies should be due soon. Today i noticed she is acting very nervous and hiding under furniture...she has also lost her appititete. Are these beggninig signs of labor? I have been feeling her stomach and im just now noticing movement....is this a sign they could be under developed? If you have any advice or helpful tips for me and Squrriel we would really appreciate it.....thanks.
Answer:
 Cats usually give birth after a pregnancy that lasts a little over 2 months. Your cat's behavior is typical of a cat that is going into labor, when she's hiding under the furniture, she's actually looking for a dark quiet place to give birth. If you have a closet or room in a quiet place she and the babies can occupy, I suggest placing a bunch of towels and soft things on the floor, along with food and water, dimming the lights and showing it to her. Being that these are the earliest signs of labor she could give birth as early as today to maybe a couple days from now. Don't worry about not feeling the movement until now, its not unusual. Also, maybe consider having her and the kittens fixed when they're a couple months old? Many Humane Societies and the SPCA will fix cats and dogs very very inexpensively, and under some circumstances with no charge at all.
Answer:
 yep she's in labor. I've delivered a lot of kittens and had you asked for advice sooner I would have told you to read of on feline labor and delivery. If there is some one you can send to the library do it now and in the mean time I will let you in on my experiences. By the way my female Siamese is roaming around the house ready to pop at any minute. Stay with your cat. Don't let her get somewhere you can't reach her especially outside. Shut the two of you in the bathroom if you have to. get a box/basket with padding on the bottom to soak up the fluids from the birthing. Have on hand scissors in case you need to cut an umbilicle cord. Dental floss to tie off the cord (about 1/2 inch from kitten) only if it bleeds a lot. alcohol to clean the scissors. a bowl to our the alcohol in. be sure to wipe the scissors dry with a clean dry towel after you acohol them. dry thin towels to wipe down kittens with you may need to wipe mucus from nose & mouths, ky jelly in case you need to examine your cat. Wash your hands thoroughly and keep them clean. Sit with your cat watch for signs of distress. She will probably cry out as you might in her place. Pet her talk softly to her. Tell her whats going on. Make sure you see a placenta after each kitten. This is critical as a retained placenta can make your cat very ill. The cat may eat the placentas or not just flush them if you don't want her to have them. Too many will make her get diarrhea or real nauseated. Good luck.
