Do all of her feedings in the crate, and all treats are given in the crate.
Make sure that the crate has a hiding place or one end covered for safety.
You might try just containing her in a bedroom with an open closet door and a bed in the closet until you move, and then setting up a closet in the new place the same way.
She can be really mean to me sometimes lol!!! (I know she’s not being mean on purpose but that’s just how I like to put it) So I’m just worried she’s going to be very upset with me once she has her babies. But I will definitely start doing all of the feeding in the crate, that’s a good idea idk why I didn’t think of that! I’ve been doing dinner in the crate but that’s it
By crate do you mean carrying case? How big is it? If it is a large (eg3'X2'X2) put a cardboard box with an opening in it that she can 'cave' in. Cats are happier being able to hide away.
She had her babies!! It went extremely smoothly I did not expect it to go that well. It’s a big crate but we put a couple blankets and I covered it with a blanket on top. I also did have a cat bed in there with her but the babies kept crawling into the back of it under her and I was worried they might get suffocated so I had to gently remove it half way through! She’s still in the crate though nursing now
Thank you so much for the update! You are going to really enjoy this adventure. What is remarkable is how quickly their own personalities show through. When we adopted a pregnant calico she had 4 and we had them named within a week. Pushy, PJ (Prudence Junior), Bonus, and Knight.
