Bless her heart to be 10 months old and preggers...she hasn't finished growing herself yet...let alone producing babies!
It can be normal for them to go off their food a bit when pregnant. She has to eat though, so give her whatever she will eat, they prefer smaller meals at this time so make sure you give her more meals a day in smaller portions - little and often- also if she will eat it, its a good idea to give her kitten food, this has extra nutrients in it for growing kittens, which seeing as she is so young and pregnant will benefit her and the babies growing inside of her. You can also give her the whiskas cat milk...if their is a kitten variety give her that one...for the same reasons as the kitten food.

Warming food slightly helps with their appetite and if she stops eating totally then you need to talk to a vet.
Hope she does ok, let us know x

These things happen samson, you'll just have to make sure she gets speyed after this lot. She will start to sleep more, it takes more out of a cat this young to have babies so it's to be expected. Is she a normal moggy or a breed?

LOL nice names for your rabbits!! I believe you that the kids chose them *cough* bs *cough* hahaha : )
