Good luck with those , I pcked up a 'pregnant' feral last night - Haven't got close enough to check for sure yet - It'll probably turn out to a be tom! :rofl:

I did that once, Tiger was the first feral I ever caught, didn't know a lot about cats so listened to the advice off a friend of mine who got me involved in the first place.  We spotted a cat with a "bulge" at the rear.......thought possibly a pregnant female  :-:  Kept "her" for a week as "she" had the snuffles and then got her in the vets for a check up........vet laughed when I said can you check that she's pregnant, she said he'd have a job cos he's got a pair of  :censored: :-[  Since then I've always erred on the side of caution when I've taken them in  :evillaugh:

On the plus side mum and babies are all doing fine......she's started meowing at me now and has let me check they're ok from time to time  :Luv:

Mum had another 2 babies yesterday morning, one sadly was born dead but the other one is doing well.  She now has 3 babies and as soon as she'll let me, I'll take a couple of piccies  :Luv:

The pregnant feral I had a home lined up for gave birth last night.  She gave birth to 3 but sadly one died  :'(  I think the baby got stuck whilst she was giving birth but the other 2 seem to be doing well.  Mum is frightened but seems to be coping, she has a few hisses at me if I feed her and did go for me this morning whilst I was removing the dead kitten but other than that she's ok.  I'm not sure what to do about moving her now as she's meant to go on Saturday  :tired:  May have to keep her here and see if a home pops up in a couple of weeks for her and her babies, ideally I wanted her to go with the others that are going as she gets on well with them.  I'll keep you posted  :hug:
