I have had a feral cat in my care since June 20th,2015 yesterday morning she gave birth to 6 kittens July 7, 2015 (5 born alive one born sleeping.) Yesterday she spent all day with her kittens now today she had moved two and wasnt coming back for the others I had to remove our dog crate from the room she is in today so she wouldnt hide between it and the wall because the two kittens were on cold tile i was worried they would die aside from that the other 3 needed to be fed. I moved the 2 kittens using gloves and placed them back with their brothers and sisters, the cat went back and fed all 5. But watching her on the baby monitor today she spends alot of time away from her kittens unless they need to be fed she sits outside the nesting box. Is this normal behaviour for a new mom? She looks fairly young herself maybe a year old (last years litter) I just want some advice on if her behaviour is normal or should i be concerned about the kittens welfare?
