Many types of wild cats eat what their mother wounds for them so that they can learn to hunt for themselves after developing a taste for certain animals. They will eat crickets and grasshoppers, birds and mice.

What type of cat eats its babies?

A mean one ;( A cat will usually not eat her babies. If one is dead, she will eat that one, to avoid attracting predators and other toms who will come if they smell them. In the wild, the toms will kill and possibly eat the kittens if they are not his, so that the next kittens the queen has will be his, but otherwise, cats do not eat kittens.

I have kittens that keep disappearing and I've seen armadillos. Could the armadillos be killing my kittens?

No I highly doubt that because armadillos eat bugs and also sometimes they can be fed moist cat food. But never heard of one eating kittens. Also in the wild when an animal kills another one it's usually to eat it at food so I doubt it's killing them because what use would they be ?
