If a kitten is still attached to the placenta, it's important to allow the mother cat to handle it if possible. Usually, she will chew through the umbilical cord and clean the kitten. If she doesn't do this within a few minutes, you can gently tie the cord with dental floss or a string about an inch from the kitten's belly and cut it with sterile scissors. Make sure to monitor both the mother and the kitten for any signs of distress or complications.

In contrast, a placenta that is attached to the front (anterior) and back (posterior) of the uterus may be referred to as a bilobed or multilobed placenta, but it does not indicate previa unless it is obstructing the cervical opening.
