Is it possible my 11 month old cat is pregnant?

Q: Okay, my cat was having regular heat cycles every two weeks, but they stopped recently. She got out of the house for a night, and has been out for short periods a few other times, but never very long aside from the night my boyfriend accidently let her out. She was not in heat at the time. It’s been about 3 weeks and her nipples are not swelling at all, so I don’t know what else to look for.The only other behavior I’m noticing is that she goes through her food much more quickly than before, and will even eat the dog’s food if her bowl isn’t filled up right away. She’s very demanding about food right now, which she has never been. She’s always left at least a little food in her bowl when she’s done eating, but now she cleans it out and demands more. Speaking of the dog, how can I keep her away from the cat if possible kittens are born? I’m gone alot of the time, so I’m not sure on what to do. And YES, she will be spayed as soon as this is over!Just some details on the dog, she’s a little pomeranian, and absolutely loves the cat. The cat grew up with her, so they’re best buds. She would never hurt anything, she’s the sweetest dog in the world! And little bitty, so little harm, if any at all, could be done to the kittens. I was mainly concerned because female cats tend to hurt their kittens if anything touches them or goes near them while they’re little. I live in a tiny one bedroom apartment, so places I can confine the cat to when it gets close to time to give birth are limited. Any suggestions?

A: When my cat had kittens, I made her a box with towels and blankets in my closet and only a little bit of space for her to get in so that my dog couldn’t get in. Just somewhere that the cat knows her babies are safe and the dog can’t get to.
