You can identify whether a female cat is falsely pregnant by palpating the abdomen. If you find that the belly of the female cat is flat and round when stroking her belly, then the female cat may have a false pregnancy. In addition, if the owner cannot confirm by petting, you can also take the cat directly to the pet hospital for an ultrasound examination to see if there is a gestational sac. If there is no gestational sac, it is a false pregnancy. This is also the most accurate way to determine whether the female cat is falsely pregnant. Methods.
1. Abdominal palpation
The kitten is usually a small lump in the uterus of the female cat, so the owner can judge false pregnancy and true pregnancy through abdominal palpation. If you can feel something like a small lump when touching the uterine area of the female cat's abdomen, the cat may be really pregnant. If the female cat's abdomen feels flat, soft, and round, it most likely means that the female cat may be falsely pregnant.
2. Go directly to the pet hospital for examination
The most accurate way to identify a false pregnancy in a female cat is to go directly to the pet hospital for examination. Generally, a normally pregnant female cat will be examined after 21 days. There will be a gestational sac in B-ultrasound scan, but a female cat with pseudopregnancy will not have a gestational sac. In addition, you can also take the cat to the pet hospital to take X-rays after forty-five days. At this time, you can see the number of fetuses more intuitively. This can not only determine whether the cat is pregnant, but also accurately determine how many fetuses there are.
