You really just need to monitor her. Watch what she does. Rub her stomach. Give her a lot of attention. Make sure she has a spot to have her babies that is out of the way and a little secluded. She will let you know when she is going to have the babies. She will start meowing and you'll see her contractions. Talk sweetly to her and just be there for her. You might have to help her. Some times the babies come out breech or tail end first. you will need to be her doctor. she will eat the placenta and cut the babies cord. if not, you might have to help her. just watch and hope her instincts take over. she will be in pain and will need comfort from you. and give her special treats. if she normally eats dry food, give her some wet food. Remember, she's female. They feel the same things we do.

Hi Tialicia,

Gestation of a cat is generally 63 days. As you don't know when she got pregnant, a vet can tell you an approximate birth date with an examination. Like humans, the pregnancy will take a lot of energy and nutrients from your cat. To prepare here are some things you can do:
1. Start feeding her a higher protein or kitten food diet to get the extra diet support she needs.
2. Prepare an area for her to have her kittens that is quiet, safe and away from other animals or lots of people traffic.
3. Begin talking to friends and family about adoption or call a local shelter to see if they would be willing to help rehome the kittens.
4. As soon as possible, spay your cat so she does not produce another unplanned litter of kittens.

Many vets will spay a cat during pregnancy to help reduce the possibility of more unwanted animals. If she is not too far along, this is another alternative to help better overall future animal welfare for your cat and future offspring.
