Hi

well she may be going to go into labour any day now. A normal cats gestation period is between 61 and 68 days so the timing is right.

It is normal that her behaviour would change if she is in the early stages of labour. However this can go on for many hours if not a day or so.

i have a web page about this here which has more information about what to look out for.
here is the page

if you are at all concerned or feel that something is wrong, telephone your vet for some advice. he may or may not feel that he needs to see her.

Hopefully by the time you have read this email your cat will have given birth to her brood.

best wishes Kate
