      No, the first pregnancy are most commonly 1-2 furballs. We rescued a pretty young cat once which was pregnant at that time and assumed it would be her first litter because she was estimated to haven’t reached her 2nd birthday yet by our vet. we thought that was manageable for us; turns out it wasn’t her first time when she delivered 5 at once.

        Plenty of cats have like 5 in their first litter. Also, cats can get pregnant after they’re only like 6 months old. Your cat knowledge seems quite made up.

          Look, this cat was “owned” by a guy who let it live outside but didn’t fix her because “he wouldn’t let anyone fix himself, why should i do it with my cat?” and went on vacations without organizing care for her. The cat wasn’t seen pregnant by the reporting person in the months before, and it’s an area with not a lot of unfixed cats roaming in general. That was the basis on which we thought it was her first litter.

          Don’t throw around accusations if you don’t know the full story, mate.

        Yep, my first cat only had one kitten.
        Which was a surprise because when I bought her I was told she had been sorted.

        (I got them both sorted asap)
