My mom took in 2 pregnant cats a month ago. They are a bonded pair, and have previously had simultaneous litters. This time, they are a couple weeks apart. mama #1 gave birth to 6 kittens early sunday morning. mama #2 was right there playing doula and quickly claimed a couple for herself to nurse. My mom did make sure all babies got to the correct mom so they can actually feed Over the past few days she's gotten more and more relentless, desperate to get to the kittens. she managed to bust into the closet when mom was distracted and made off with 2 kittens under the bed. So she's really had her work cut out for her, keeping the cats separate. Which is a shame, when they're bonded. Not entirely sure when mama #2 is due. her nipples look full, but her belly is small (could just be a smaller litter?) previous estimate was she was about 2 weeks behind mama #1. So the problem will be fixed once she gives birth and has her own. Any tricks, besides just keeping up with separating and waiting for her own babies to placate her?
