To determine how many weeks pregnant a cat is, look for the following signs: from 2-3 weeks, her nipples turn pink and enlarge (known as 'pinking up'); at 3-4 weeks, her belly starts to grow; by 5 weeks, you might feel kittens moving. A vet can provide a more accurate estimate through an ultrasound or examination.
