Pregnant cat?
My cat Allie got out of the house for 5 days. Allie is an indoor cat and she is not fixed. Recently i've been noticing that she has been gaining a little bit of weight (or i might not look at her well enough every time i see her), my sister and I try to touch her stomach to see if its hard, and she starts hissing at us. finally we got ahold of her and touched her stomach, and it felt a little hard. this was about 3 weeks ago maybe more. but no more then 5 weeks ago. could my cat be pregnant?
if she is..
how long does it take for a cat to have kittens?
what happens if she delivers the kittens and no one is home?
anything else i would need to know?

Note that cats tend to settle down on specific comfortable spots, and they do not like to be moved for at least a week after the birth. So, be careful not to have say, your laundry basket lying around, otherwise if the cat sets up its bed in it, you really cannot disturb it or it might reject its kittens.

As the season for mating is still in play, It is very possible that your cat could be pregnant. A cat's pregnancy cycle is usually slightly over 2 months. If the cat gives birth to kittens while nobody is home the most you can do to prepare for this is make sure your cat is in a comfortable spot at the time she is near her due date.
