It may be that there are many reasons for cats to bleed, and the precursor to childbirth is just one of them. It may also be infection of the reproductive system, trauma or injury, etc. Before giving birth, cats may experience a small amount of bleeding or bloody discharge due to the shedding of the endometrium and the dilation of the cervix. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and usually indicates that labor is approaching.

In addition to bleeding, cats will also have the following symptoms when they are about to give birth:

Frequent licking of the vagina: Cats will constantly lick their vagina in preparation for giving birth.

Obvious abdominal contraction: Before giving birth, the cat’s abdomen will shrink significantly.

Look for a quiet and secluded place: Cats will look for a quiet and secluded place before giving birth so that they can give birth safely.

Falling in body temperature: Before giving birth, the cat’s body temperature will drop slightly.
