Jus like a real life mommy, they are able to produce milk as ling as the kittens are nursing. When the kittens have reached the appropriate age to be weened YOU have to keep a close eye and try to get your kittens to stop nursing....kittens will start eating the food if you put it out- try to get food meant for kittens or even soft food- not canned for- jus a softer version of dry cat food. Once all of your kittens have eaten regular food- DEF make sure none of them are nursing- then momma cats dries up and all is well!

Usually about when they're four weeks old. Sometimes longer if she has a large litter or if she has mostly female kittens because they don't bother the mother that much.

Why would your cat stop feeding the kittens after 3 days?

Not all cats are good Moms, or, she may not have enough milk, or occluded nipples. Wash her nipples with a warm, damp wascloth to be sure there is no crusty or gooey stuf on her, then give her some brisk belly-rubs to encourage the milk to flow. Then put the kittens on her to nurse. If this doesn't work , you will have to bottle feed the kittens every 2-4 hours. And call the Vet as soon as possible.
