MY CAT IS A 2 YEAR OLD FEMALE. SHE GOES INTO HEAT ABOUT EVERY THREE MONTHS OR SO. SHE RECENTLY GOT OUTSIDE BY ACCIDENT DURING HER HEAT CYCLE SO SHE COULD BE PREGNANT BUT SHE HAS SLIGHTLY SWOLLEN NIPPLES THAT HAVE MILK ALREADY. THERE QUITE ABIT OF MILK IT SPRAYS WHEN SQUEEZED GENTLY. SHE HASNT GAINED ANY WEIGHT . I WAS WONDERING IF I THIS IS NORMAL,IF SHE IS PREGNANT IT HAS ONLY BEEN ABOUT 2 WEEKS OR SO.

I will admit to not having any previous experience of this myself. I have heard of phantom pregnancies which may cause milk to flow. Perhaps this is what is happenng here.

May be another of the visitors to my website will have seen this before and offer some advice.
