Heavily pregnant cat in my garden

    Was just in the kitchen there and there is a very pregnant cat sitting outside my door. She looks like she really wants to come in and is rubbing her head all over the glass and purring. I think I've seen her on my road before, there's a good few cats around here. They sometimes walk through the garden but I've never seen one of them come up to the door and try to be let in. I went outside to open the back gate thinking she might be stuck in the garden because of her big, pregnant belly :rolleyes:

    I had to put her outside the gate as she was trying to cuddle up to me etc. Now she's at my front door! I feel terrible as she's pregnant and she obviously wants something but there's no way I can let her in as the people I live with HATE cats with a passion.

    Should I just leave her? I'm assuming her owner lives along this road but I can't help worrying about the poor thing.

    Change the people you live with and take her in, she's probably looking for somewhere safe to have her kittens. I couldn't live with the guilt:(

    Let her in just for a while and do a door to door asking your neighbours about her...

    If you can at all, let her in
    I would say she is just looking for somewhere cosy and safe to have her kittens.
    Aw the poor mite :(

    Id bring her in anyway she might not have any home to have the kittens or place a wooden box shelter outside for her

    No way could I have let her inside to have her kittens..Words can't describe how much the people I live with despise cats. All sorted now thanks for your replies!

    Is she still in your garden?
    If there isn't a shed or a sheltered spot, could you just put out a box with a few old towels or something soft in case she really has nowhere else safe to have her kittens?
    She will use it if she has no other option.
