The mother cat will bite, chew, and eat the sac. If she takes too long, break the sac away from the kitten's face. But otherwise, let her finish doing it. Her licking stimulates the kitten to breathe. IF mother is in distress, grab a rag, hold the kitten inside the rag using both hands and vigorously rub to remove the sac and stimulate the kitten to breathe--then take mom and ALL kittens to the vet.

Do newborn kittens come in their own placenta sack?
Yes they do. Sometimes these sacs bursts while the kitten is in the birth canal, sometimes they don't. The mother cat should make sure the kitten is safely out of the sac once it is born, if she does not you should do this, if not, the kitten will not be able to breathe! If the sac bursts before the kitten is born, the mother should pass it soon. Sometimes female cats eat the placenta, don't be alarmed if you do not find any, this is what is likely to have happened.
What are cats coverd in when they are just born?
When they are born, kittens already have fur; additionally, they are born still encased in their amniotic sac and with the placenta attached. The pressure of being born usually breaks the sac, letting the amniotic fluid out, but does not remove it; the mother cat licks the kitten to remove the remnants of the sac and start the kitten breathing.

What is the normal sequence for items being expelled when cat gives birth to three kittens?
You'll first see a bulging sac begin to protrude. Do not intervene. Mom cat will be licking herself. She will puncture the sac. She will bear down until she pushes the kitten out. Mom cat should instinctively begin eating and chewing the sac to remove it-- yes gross, but let her. If she's a first time mom, you might need to pull the sac off the kitten's face. It's slimy and bloody--just wash your hands later. LET mom do the cleaning unless she totally won't do it. She will lick to stimulate the kitten to breathe. Then, the whole thing repeats. Put kitten near mom's belly---do NOT touch it a lot. Leave her be-- instincts are amazing.
