okay so my cat had these lumps about two weeks ago right around her teets. they were only tiny so i didnt think anything of it. then yesterday i checked her again and the lumps fit perfectly in my hand. she is an outdoor cat that is about 5 months old. her brother also isnt fixed so my grandma thinks shes pregnant, but i think they are tumors or blockage. PLEASE HELP ME i love my cats
If she isn’t spayed then the chances of her being pregnant is very high! and her teats are large due to being full of milk, check for other signs such as feeling her tummy to feel for the kittens heads,they will feel like little round lumps.
Take your KITTEN to the vet IMMEDIATELY. A 5 month old KITTEN CAN get pregnant, but having a litter at this age COULD KILL HER!!!
The vet will be able to tell if she’s pregnant or has some other “issue”. If you’re smart, you’ll have her SPAYED at that time, and not take a chance on her LIFE being “snuffed out” because you didn’t get her spayed BEFORE letting her roam around with “intact” males……
Also, if her brother mated with her, the resulting kittens could be deformed physically and / or mentally. Brothers / sisters should NEVER be allowed to mate. Get him neutered, too, so that he’s not impregnating the rest of the neighborhood.
PLEASE, for HER HEALTH and WELFARE…….get her to the vet NOW, for an exam………..Good luck.
Do the responsible thing please and take her to a vet. Both cats need to be fixed or they will mate with each other and then you will have all sorts of other problems. She needs to be at the vet asap, if its an infection she could die, if its tumors she could die. If she is pregnant, there is probably still time to abort the kittens. Please do the best thing for her and have her spayed.
When a cat is pregnant, her nipple will become bigger and a deeper colour. Check to see if hers are anything like this. Also, other signs of pregnancy are: large lumps at the sides, eating more, being more affectionate, and resting more often.
If your cat doesn’t seem to have any of these signs, you better get her to the vet. It could be something serious!!
You should not be letting a 5 months old female cat outside or around an un neutered maled especially her brother. You need to take your cat to the vet and heve her checked out and spayed. They can be tumors, milk build up or even an infection. There is no answer you’re going to get online that will fix your cat. PLEASE take her to the vet!
Get your kittens to the vet now. Spay and neuter them. She cannot carry kittens if she is pregnant (most likely by her brother). She is too young. Kittens as young as 4 months old have been known to mate and get pregnant.
At her age she could die trying to give birth.
She may well be pregnant, there is a very high chance of it if you’ve been letting her go outside before she is neutered. Only way to be sure is to take her to the vet for a check, you can book the neuter whilst you’re there!
So………what qualifies in your eyes as needing a vet checkup? Spring for the $35 exam fee and get her in to a vet.
cant love your cat that much if you let her out before getting her fixed
