Is the cat neutered if not Did you listen for heartbeats?

If she is neutered even if she is TAKE YOUR CAT TO A VET. We are not vets
and no one can give you an answer unless they are a veterinary professional
and have examined the cat with a full work up done.

What do you mean really big? Is it puffy, like with air? Has she been
spayed? Im sure youve already went over the pregnancy part. Let me
know if her tummy is puffy or not, we will go from there., You can
respond to me at my email address, or on this group, I will get it if
you go through the group, I have an alert set.

Maybe a troll, maybe not...

This person has not shared nearly enough information to give anyone
with a reasonable knowledge of cat health issues enough to go on.
Gestation for cats is 90 days +++, four months is way beyond this.

An extended belly could be cause of many health issues... But for four
mohths? Why would someone write as late as now???

Something is most certainly amiss with this post...

Have no idea. I contacted this person by email and offered help. no
response. feline infectious perotinitus (dry version) will show up
like this. Or, could be parasites. Hard to dx over net. lol.  I havent
been in this group long, so I wouldnt know if she is a regular or not.
I didnt look at her history either. Maybe she is at the vet by now.
hopefully. I had an elderly lady bring a cat in with a very swollen
abdomen, had been spayed. Cat was 1 and half years old. And her
stomach was very big. She was fat. She hadnt taken her off kitten
chow! That one was pretty simple.

Actually, its the wet form (effusive) of FIP that distends the abdomen.

I hope s/he is a troll- otherwise its a scary post to read a few hours
before adoptions!
