Can a sick kitten make all the other kittens sick?
Yes. Isolate the sick kitten in another room away from other cats and kittens. Take it to see your vet as well.

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!
Will your cat hurt your newborn if you take her kittens away?
No. Cats will not hurt your baby if you take her kittens away. Your cat may just not be fond of babies because of their noises, smells, or attention. But as far as I know most cats are fond of babies or at least tolerate.
What is a nanny cat?
A "nanny cat' is a queen who is already nursing a litter of kittens that she birthed and if she takes on kittens orphaned from another litter to nurture and raise with her litter, she is called the "nanny." Often mother cats will take very young kittens (under two weeks) quite readily as their own to nurse and raise.
Do mother cats take there kittens away two protect them?
It depends if they're wild ones or home-trained ones normally wild mother cats usually take their kittens away to protect them from danger. If it is a home one it is completley safe ;) Reply :D
Where do farm cats have their kittens?
Cats will usually go somewhere dark, safe, dry, warm, and secluded to have their kittens. When I was a child we had an outdoor cat that had her kittens inside an old truck that sat on our land. We had to pry open the doors to get mama and her babies out, and take them inside so they would be safe.
Why are my cats newborn kittens dying?
your cat may have a disease. or is just unable to carry kittens. either that or the father might have a disease. a disease that makes them unable to have kittens. you should take your cat to the vet to see why.
How long will a cat mourn her kittens?
If the kittens die, or are taken away by humans, it can be very saddening to the mama cat, and will take a long time to get over it. If she only loses one kitten, she will take care of her other kittens. But if its all of her kittens, then she will probably grieve herself to death. She can, actually. If she has another litter of kittens, she might abandon them. Who knows; she might even take care of them. Cats are usually predictable, but sometimes, this can be VERY UNpredictable. So, you never really know. You just have to try it and see. But I would be careful. If you were to take kittens from a mama cat, forever, then you might want to take them at six weeks or older. If you can't do six weeks or older, than do at least four weeks. If they are younger than that, you must leave them with their mama, or feed them warm milk in a bottle. I can give you more information about taking care of cats if you need it. I'll tell you on the Discussion Page.
