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.
