so my cat just had kittens last night. i didn't know she was pregnant and i've never had a cat give birth before. i was under the impression that she would just handle her own business but after googling i am sort of freaked out. do i need to be monitoring if they are feeding? how would i know if they were or not? do i need to leave her alone?

i moved her and the kittens indoors because i was scared of other animals eating her babies if left outdoors


she is a very weird cat. the weirdest i have ever had. she likes 0 attention or affection and acts like she is scared of everyone


any helpful info or tips would be appreciated

Leave her be, she knows what she has to do it comes instinctivly if she refuse to clean/feed one of the kittens you'll have to start bottle feeding it and cleaning it with a wet towel urself

Just keep an eye on how she actswith her babies if she refuse to.interact or let one kitten get near her thats how you would know

Also i guess check up on the kittens when shes feeding them if she refuse to feed one you will notice quickly

/E also dont touch the kittens they cant see yet and her mom will likely attack you

Once again if they come and rub on you and she dont seem to mind its ok

sookie doesn't attack me. i think she trusts me she just doesn't like contact with people. she never even hissed when i moved the babies from outside to inside she just seemed like she wanted to escape (she's a freaking weird skittish cat)

i'm not going to overly bother them. i work and i'm not always around. the few times i have to check on them. will i be able to tell if it's okay?

give her plenty of food and water. she will take care of them. Dont be surprised if one of them dies.
