How do cats get pregnant?

Answer 1

By mating. Similar to the way humans do. If your cat is an outdoor/indoor cat and hasn't been neutered/spayed, then they'll almost always find a mate; even if you don't know of another cat of the opposite gender in the area.

Spaying at a young age prevents mammary cancer and spaying at any age prevents unwanted kittens, noisy heat cycles, and possibly even urine marking in the house. The following is a list of frequently asked questions gleaned from years of veterinary practice as well as from answering questions on line. We have found that, even though the cat spay is a routine and commonly performed procedure, many pet owners still have questions. Hopefully, this site will be helpful. What is actually removed during spaying? Spaying is an "ovariohysterectomy," which means that both the ovaries and the uterus are removed. The cervix is tied off, leaving the vagina to end in a blind sac. Since it is the ovaries that are responsible for the heat cycles, possible mammary tumor development, and behavior problems, it is crucial that the ovaries be removed intact; some veterinarians will leave the uterus behind, though, it is generally regarded as best to remove the entire tract, uterus included.

Cats get pregnant through mating with a male cat. During mating, the male cat's sperm fertilizes the female cat's eggs, which then develop into embryos that grow into kittens inside the female cat's uterus. The pregnancy typically lasts around 63-65 days before the kittens are born.
