Question
omg ive just caught my tom cat mating with one of my other cats and shes onli 5 months old what should i do, as you know my bengals expecting but thats not a problem as shes 18 months old but im worried about the 5 month old please help

Answer
Hi Gail

Well if he has mated her successfully there is not much you can do at this stage and time will tell if she is pregnant.  However just in case she is not pregnant I would separate them so that he doesn't get another chance.  

If she is pregnant then you will need to keep an eye on her and make sure you are with her when she has them as she is not yet fully grown and she may have problems that require veterinary assistance.
