The gestation period for a typical cats is about 3 months, which is between 62-66 days. Premature and late births to kittens sometimes do happen. But if your cat is outside the range of 62-66 days then, i ask your vet if everything is ok.

The gestation period (the time it takes to get from a fertilized egg to birthing a live kitten) for a typical house cat is 62-66 days, about 3 months. Premature and late births do happen but if your cat is outside that range, I recommend a visit to your vet to make sure everything is okay.

The average length of a feline pregnancy is 65 days and can typically range from 63-67 days. For the first three weeks you will not notice any differences to your cat. After that time you may notice that your cat's nipples will be brighter in color.

My understanding is that the average gestation (length of pregnancy) for a domestic cat is 63 days. There may, of course, be a small amount of individual variation, but that length is the usual one for a pet cat. Other cat species have different rates of gestation.

The gestation period for a typical cat is 3 months which between 62-66 days. Kittens sometimes can be born late or be premature. But if your cat is over 66 days then i reccommend to ask your vet if everything is alright with the cat.

How can all of you say that 66 days = 3 months ... what calendar are you's working off? ... even if you select February and March you still end up with 59 days ... so 66 days = one week more and is far from 3 months ... pshhh  add a comment
