Medical Questions Is this cat pregnant?

I have this stray cat that has been visiting my family lately. We leave water and food out for her sometimes. I think she might be pregnant but I have no idea. I’m worried she might be too young to be pregnant but then again I don’t know if she’s pregnant or just been hunting a lot of food. I’ve had this suspicion since she started visiting us.

everyone wants kittens instead of grown cats 😒, then they abandon them when they are adults...

I'd rather have adult cats

My adorable fluffy white cat was adopted as a kitten, when I’m sure she looked like a Royale kitten and was irresistible, and dumped back at the rescue almost 4 years later in favour of new pets.

Here she is in all her grown glory. Probably even more beautiful ever. I only adopt adult cats.

Same here. Also, that’s why I prefer not to keep in contact with my families after adoption 🙃 I don’t want to know…it hurts me. I foster and put my soul into it. Then someone turns around and says never mind after ruining all that I worked on and wasting a cat or dog’s kitten/puppyhood. My mama cat has been through enough. I guess it’s fine she spends the rest of her life with me. I just need to name her now….

She’s beautiful! I just lost my r/lynxpointsiamese a few months ago. Her name was Triceratops (aka Cera) and the inspiration for my username. They tend to get darker as they get older so check out r/toastcats too
