Hi, yes sometimes cats can hide their pregnancy well. She will likely have a few more kittens, although just one is possible as well. Give her a safe quiet space with a box of towels where she can have her kittens. They usually do not need any help with giving birth. After the kittens are weaned, I strongly suggest getting her spayed. Good luck!
