my cat is pregnant and she has pooed in her water bowl is this normal?


Answer by KAte
Hi no this is not normal, is her water bowl close to her litter tray?

It may be that your cat is feeling anxious about her pregnancy and she is using her poop as a way of scenting her areas to make her feel more settled and at home.

If the behaviour continues then it may be an idea to take her for a check up at the vets just to be on the safe side.
Hopefully this was just a one off.

best wishes kate
