yes mam I grew up with tons of kitties my cats always got that way when they were near labor and when my aunt had her two my male cat would meow horribly and hiss at her if she were to get up and move she went into labor a week later he knew:)@niki664 nik
yes mam he definitely knows your close, they get very very protective when female cats go into labor they lay in one place or they're suppose to lol that's what he is wanting you to do:)
