Cat looks and acts pregnant but isnt

by stephanie

My cat is 2 yrs old, last night she went into "labor" and produced mucus, bloody stuff. No kittens though! She is Not pregnant. What caused her to do this? I have heard of fake pregnancy in pets but do they produce mucus?


Answer
Hi I have never heard of this before and it certainly isn't normal. Phantom cat pregnancies normally refer to behavior issues not actual physical labor.

I would strongly recommned having her looked at by the vet, she may have some other internal problem which needs treatment.

Hope she is Ok

best wishes Kate
