my kittens are 7 weeks old in 4 days.
all 4 are weaned and using the litter tray.
now i have started to seperate momma from the kittens under the vets advice, so that her milk will dry up so she can be spayed.
i keep her seperated during the day and let her back in with them during the night.
however she makes a huge fuss about it and so sometimes i let her go to them during the day and take that time off the time she woudl spend with them at night.
however as soon as i let her in with the kittens , she eats all there food, uses there litter tray and runs off again.
she does still suckle them , but not that often.
momma cat also does get kitten food of her own , as much as she wants. she however will actually leave her food just to eat her kittens food.
why does she do this?
and shoudl i just keep her seperated from them all the time now except for play times?
