A cat is usually pregnant for a little over 2 months before they give birth.

Once your cat starts showing kittens in her belly you should expect the cat to be ready to give birth within 2 months or a little after 2 months of getting pregnant.

The gestation period of a cat is between 58 days to 67 days.

Cats give birth to kittens in less time than humans give birth to human babies.

If your cat is an indoor cat provide her with a box big enough to have the kittens in and big enough for the kittens and the mother cat to move around in.

This is what I did with my cat when she had kittens which was around 10 years ago.

Just make sure the box is small enough in height so the cat can get in and out of the box.

The box also keeps the kittens safe.
