Answer
Dear Carla

From the time you first see kittens moving, it is probably about 2 weeks to the happy event, but of course it does depend on how observant you have been so it could be less.  Its not really a very good guide - the best is knowing when she was mated.

I can give answers on cat breeding and showing having 'served' over 30 years in this particular field. I head up a Yahoo Group and also a cat club (NBA Cat Club) devoted to educating novices in the correct way to breed, and also show with both GCCF and TICA on a regular basis, and am well versed with the show world, having been involved in the management of the major GCCF Supreme Show in the UK for over 25 years. Genetics however is not my strong point.
