Marriage and pregnancy when cats
Female cats arrive at sexual puberty at an early age, and some cats reach puberty in the fourth or fifth month and some may reach puberty at the ninth month. A female who has become sexually able to mate or conceive directly.
But it is always better not to mate between cats only after reaching the age of the year to be able physically and psychologically to give birth and have strong embryos as well as high productivity in terms of the number of cats in each belly and the number of births during their useful life.
My advice to anyone who breeds cats to choose the sex of the cat according to the purpose of breeding is not raising a female and then sterilized with the aim of non-reproduction and who wanted to raise a male.
Because breeding cats and breeding is a beautiful thing and raising cats and generating wealth for those who raise them, especially after the same rates of breeding cats in the Arab countries to the extent that they become more than in Western countries, because of the high level of cultural among the Arab peoples Of entertainment and to develop the spirit of kindness and tenderness among those who raise it.
The cycle of eroticism in cats comes at frequent intervals unlike dogs, and we find it comes once every three weeks or a month according to the cat breed as long as there is no pregnancy.
The season of mating cats begins between late autumn to late spring and in that period the cat comes to the cat at close and regular intervals almost as long as they did not carry and this does not mean that they do not come summer but come at intervals.
Cats who conceive and give birth will re-enter the estrus about eight to ten weeks after their birth.
Cats are not like other animals occur ovulation first and then are fertilized after they get married, but that cats happen ovulation after vaccination or the impact of vaccination unlike most animals.
That is, the act of vaccination itself is what stimulates the release of eggs from the ovary and only by chance, the number of embryos produced depends on the number of eggs that have been successfully fertilized sperm.
This means that the number of births determines the strength of sperm capable of fertilization as well as the number of eggs produced during the cycle. The sex of newborns is completely determined by the chromosomes found in the male sperm and there is no income for the female, as in the case of humans.
There is a low probability that the female will accept the marriage of two males during a single estrus cycle and this happens only rarely and does not give this opportunity as much as possible to prevent the mixing of genetic factors in births. The female does not miss the signs of the cycle immediately after vaccination, but continue with them naturally for a number of days after the completion of vaccination.
Adult males (male at the age of 7 – 10 months and become valid for marriage at the age of one year) should marry for the first time to marry a female with experience in mating any more than once, for the first time in the male marriage at least because some males Shirazi when Approaching the female for the first time does not have the desire and not be psychologically prepared for marriage and the presence of female expert with them stimulate and encourage them to intermarry because the male for the first time does not know how to approach the female in error and infect times until it becomes a good practitioner of mating.
Mating between males and females occurs several times during the period of acceptance of the male. But the male must always be placed with the female for an appropriate period of time not less than two days from the moment of acceptance in order to be acquaintance and closeness and composed between them before marriage and in order to feel the desire of the male female be successful mating.
Pregnancy in cats has distinctive signs and symptoms, beginning with the fourth week of pregnancy. Swollen and expert hands can feel the embryos, which are in the third week in the size of the lemon can also know the number can also work sonar for cats to diagnose pregnancy. In the fifth week, the size of the abdomen begins to increase significantly with the increase in pain appetite for food in a noticeable manner as well. She also has a tendency to sleep most of the time and tries to make a nest for herself all over the house as she finds it quieter and smoother and her mood is high. In the early stages of pregnancy, the mother develops bouts of vomiting and diarrhea, such as wart in women and at the end of pregnancy, they appear to have a soft stool all the time and in other cases, they have bouts of constipation.
The duration of pregnancy in cats is approximately 63 days from the day of mating and the pregnancy may progress or be delayed within five days before or after this date. However, in case of any delay in the delivery of the day should be examined by a veterinarian, there may be problems of any kind or need help in giving birth. It was found that the cat can give birth to all its young over a period of 6-12 hours and stages, but the death rate in recent births is large although it is born full .. The cat can give birth to one or two and then the next day other births, but the birth is all within 48 This is due to her marriage more than once in more than a day.
