She looks happy! Do your windows have screens or can she get out? Or are you concerned about the noise? Just keep her other nest available so she can move them back. Maybe it was too hot for her?
Maybe it was hot for her. I was just worried about the kittens temperature that i forgot about momma cat.She looks happy! Do your windows have screens or can she get out?

Im afraid about the potential noise from outside. There is a lot of stuff in the livingroom right now. I will try to organize them and use the fencing i used before to block them off.She should be okay for now. I’m just guessing, as it could be any of those things. Check the living room for potential unsafe or areas so could move them again that you might not be able to reach them and block them off ahead of her, lol. You will be rewarded soon enough when they start interacting! So cute!!
That looks fine. When I fostered Gracie and her newborn kittens, I used a large low plastic under the bed storage container that was big enough for her to move around in and high enough to contain the babies. She should be allowed to get up and come and go as she pleases. Mamas need breaks too. lol. You might want to line the top with puppy training pads because the bedding is gonna get messy when the babies start peeing and pooping. Mamma will be licking them after nursing to get them to go. She'll try to clean up after them but the puppy pad will help you not have to wash the bedding every day.Will this be okay?
I will try my best thank you !!That looks fine.

She woke me up because she couldn't find her litter box in its original spot.Yes, try to do it while she’s distracted and see if she likes it better. She’s going to want your company. She’s a teen mom, lol... that’s why she keeps coming to you. She gets reassurance from you, and love. She’s still hormonal.
Thank you so much for making me feel better!! <3She looks very happy there! If you can shake the rug out that might be good enough for now, just wait until she’s not using it. Great idea, btw!
She has good instincts, and is being a good momma. When they’re outside they move nests frequently for protection and to keep their babies clean and protected from parasites. If you’re stressing that she might move them again, make her another nest but don’t put them in it. She may even decide to bring them back to your room.
You are doing a great job! All the kittens are fat and thriving. That’s very reassuring. Tell yourself that when you start to get overwhelmed.
She woke me up 2x really hungry. She might be sick of her dry food. Might have diarrhea soon but i mixed in some of her old food. Hopefully its okay for her to nurse while eating it because man when i offered her some, SHE JUST RUSHED TO EAT IT. Im still sleepy and im making her scrambled eggs now. Im buying wetfood later. Is it okay for her to eat friskies while nursing bcs idk abt nutrition.
As ADORABLE and chunky as they are, they can’t possibly be dehydrated. I hope this reassures you somewhat! They aren’t sickly and hopefully will stay like that.
As far as mama, nope, the basement is not for her, lol. You can offer her a scrambled egg, no salt if you’re out of wet food and she’s really hungry. Try a small portion to see if she’ll eat it first. If she does, then she might enjoy that!
