They don't care so much to the point where they will get mad. They may start looking for that dead kitten, but it doesn't change their everyday routine. All in all, the mother cat won't really care if one of her kittens are missing. She'll think "Hey, one less kitten to feed"

Is it normal for my cat that just had kittens to be sitting away from them but in the same room and will she feed them?
You need to take your cat and kittens to the vet immediately. New kittens always need veterinary attention. Also, you will need to get the mother spayed to avoid new litters. There are too many homeless cats being put to death every single day. no this is not normal, when a cat first has kittens they are over protected of their young. if the cat is not next to the kittens then it is more likely that she will not feed them.. the only time that the cat does not feed their young is when she does not recognize their scent. which mean the kitten was tuched by a human or another animal before the mother had a chance to recognize their scent. Hope this helps!
