Question
Hello,today my cat is acting very strange she is licking her vagina and while she does that she growls i think she might be pregant whats with her?

Answer
Hi
well this is difficult to answer as a examination of the cat would be required to find out if she was pregnant. However the behaviour you describe is not something that I have heard about in regards to pregnancy, so i am reluctant to say that this could be the case or not.

However my first reaction was perhaps she had some sort of irritation in that area that is making her growl. I.e she is angry or frustrated by the irritation.

It is probably a good idea to check the area out by taking her to a vet for a check up.

best wishes Kate
