10 month old cat is pregnant. Will she be ok?
We got her from a home run animal charity when she was 5 months old and the woman lied to us about a lot off stuff. She told us she was microchipped, spayed, flea/worm treated and vaccinated. The cat had a lot of fleas and had tape worm eggs in her poos so we got her flead and wormed again and vaccinated just in case. We never really thought much about the spaying thinking the woman had actually done it. But today i noticed her nipples are really big and pink. Now that i think back she had been miewing but it never really clicked in my head. Shes only 10 months old. Will she be ok will the pregnancy?

Maybe and maybe not. Ideally you will take her to the vet to have a gravid spay done. At her age she may have complications and need a vet assisted delivery - my local emergency vet charges around $2500 for that procedure. Young moms often take one look at the kittens, decide that motherhood is not for them and leave YOU to nurse the litter, every two hours, round the clock. Work/school/sleep - doesn't matter as without the round the clock feeding they dehydrate and die. And what will you do with the kittens if they do survive? You need to keep them a minimum of 8 weeks, and then attempt to find homes for them, which won't be easy as there are tons of kittens in the shelter already spayed/neutered and vaccinated. Call the vet first thing tomorrow morning and tell them you need a gravid spay done.
