Re: how do u know


normally first signs are a low call like when mum calls for her kits.Another sign is she will roll on the floor and roll and roll going over and over.Then she will lay on floor with her tail end slightly higher then front.When in full call she will lay on floor but her tail end will be much higher and she will be padding with her back feet,(looks like shes walking fast with her back legs but dosnt go any where).if you stroke her she will also do this with her feet and she may call out.Some when in call are very vocal and you just cant miss it nor do the neighbours Ha Ha.Just be carefull as its her first season and some can get very anxious as they dont know whats going on.I had one that swiped me across the face very ,frigntening for her and me,but she didnt mean it.Haveing said all of this some first season you just dont see as its called the kitten call.She may not come in season till the spring.Hope this helps
