My cat accidentally got out! Or I let the cat out, I think she may be pregnant.
OK, gee I hate this one. So simple. Spay/Neuter your cat between the ages of 8 weeks old and 4 months and you would then only have to worry about her getting hit
by a car or something next time.
If your cat got out and he/she is not altered have them fixed ASAP, like that week. Then you wont have to sit there and guess and then when it's too late you have
kittens and several just got gassed in the shelters. Male cats face real problems as well. Male cats are more likely to fight and get a disease. And they do make babies as
well so make sure they are neutered.
You probably think I didn't answer, I know how the Internet is. The answer is Stop, call the vet and have them spay your cat with in  2 weeks. In the mean time here
are a few things you can relate to your vet.

How to tell if kitty is pregnant:
1) pinking of the nipples, starts about 15-18 days after mating,  most noticeable in first-time queens

2) palpation: as early as 14 days, but most easily between 25-30 days (when the fetuses are about 1 inch in size)

3) x-rays: best between days 38-49 when bony development in the fetuses is mature enough to
show up

4) ultrasound: about 99% accurate at 28 days, can be used as early as 14 days; also has the advantage of detecting heart beats and so determining if the fetuses are
viable

The average gestation period for a cat is 65 days.
