Phantom pregnancy yes, not false. Look out for milk and if she gets a lot you may need something from the vet to help. If she starts mothering toys, take them away, and moping round, encourage her to be active and playful. Will pass in a week or so.

LOL!! I always used to say false too, but false is when they have been mated and not taken. Phantom is when they imagine it!! Mine has them too, not bad ones though.
Im sure she will be better soon.

That is working on the assumption that there was no chance she mated i am guessing?!
