How long does it take for cats to mate?

Cat mating is a normal physiological phenomenon, so do you know how long it usually takes for cats to mate?
In fact, the mating time of cats is very short, when cats mate, the male cat will lie on the female cat for about 1 to 5 minutes, during this period, scavengers do not have to worry about them, when the female cat suddenly turns back and bites the male cat or scratches the male cat, it means that the cat reproduction is over, and the two cats will be separated automatically.
The female cat will accept mating again after 5 to 10 minutes of mating. The mating time for female cats is usually 1 to 4 days. After mating, the female cat will usually not make any more shrill yowls and is not interested in the male cat, but will roll on the floor repeatedly and lick her vagina. If you see a female cat licking her ass, it means that the cat has been successfully bred.
The breeding time of cats is usually very short, and during the mating process, the female cat may make screaming noises. These are normal phenomena and there is no need to worry.
And cats have a strong ability to reproduce. If your female cat sneaks out during the heat period, she is likely to be pregnant with kittens when she comes back.

Then how to determine whether the female cat is pregnant:

1, female cats will stop their estrous behavior because they are pregnant. (See if the female cat has had contact with a male cat)
2, generally there will not be any changes in the body within one month of pregnancy, but the amount of food will increase and the habits will become docile.
3. After one month the belly will gradually get bigger and the most obvious sign is that the hair around the nipples will become a little bald and turn pink. Near the time of delivery, milk will flow from the nipples, and the mother cat will be in an abnormal mood and will keep licking the vagina.
The pregnancy time of cats is usually around 60 days. (Due to physical reasons, the pregnancy and delivery cycle of some cats is around 70 days, if the delivery cycle is too long, you should go to the hospital in time to avoid difficult labor.)

How to take care of pregnant female cats?

① Avoid stress

After the mother cat is pregnant, try to keep the living environment quiet and stop all behaviors that cause stress to the cat: e.g. bathing, going out, etc.

②Prevent the cat from being injured

Pregnant female cats should be very careful, do not treat them roughly, move gently and avoid squeezing the abdomen. If the pregnant cat fights with other cats in the house, it must be isolated.

③Appropriate exercise

Appropriate exercise for the mother cat is not only good for her own health, but also for the development of the fetus and normal delivery.
In the late stage of pregnancy, the mother cat will be less inclined to exercise due to the enlargement of the fetus, at this time we need to artificially motivate her, such as luring her for a walk with small snacks and teasing her with a cat teaser. (but not too strenuous)

④Preparing the maternity ward

Cats will be insecure before and after giving birth, so it is best to place the maternity room in a place where the cat feels safe. Place blankets or clothes familiar to the cat in the delivery room to create a comfortable and safe environment for the cat.

⑤ Supplement sufficient nutrition

When a mother cat is pregnant, her body needs a lot of nutrients so that the kittens born will be healthy. In feeding, add protein, fat, vitamins and minerals, and ensure that the food is fresh and easy to digest. Follow the principle of small meals, appropriately increase the number of feedings and provide clean drinking water.
As a staple food for cats, it is best to replace it with high-protein cat food to meet their nutritional needs.
