Let’s us proceed to the second point,

Cat Reproduction

A cat reaches reproductive maturity between 6 and 9

months of age.

Heat Patterns

-A female cat mate by calling for male company with

their special 'meow' which like the (highly vocal)

howling sounds and rub themselves along the floor with

tailed raised.

-They started to walk like a queen when they are out.

-The heat lasts between 7 to 21 days.

-The breeding season in cats is practically year-round,

running as early as February, and as late as December.

Reproduction Process

- The male cat's penis has backward pointing spines which

scratch the interior of its partner, and cause ovulation to

occur.

- The mother's eggs are fertilized in the oviduct and arrive in

the uterus 4-5 days after mating.

- Pregnancy lasts between 56 and 71 days, with the average

pregnancy taking 68 days.

Birthing

- A few days before she is due to give birth, the pregnant

female will become restless and will look for the best nest.

- This will normally be quiet, warm and in one of the darker

parts of the house. This is where she will give birth.

- The birthing process is called 'queening’.

- The cervix begins to dilate (open). A clear, odourless

discharge from the vagina is usually apparent.

- At birth, the newborn kittens are blind, deaf and helpless.

*Be sure to take really good care of them from young and not

to touch newborn stray kittens because their mother will

abandon them if you do! (unless you want to take care the

whole family, go ahead =))
