Oh they'll suck her super dry.
Cats nurse kittens until the kittens are about four or five weeks old. At this age, kittens begin to wean and are able to eat soft kitten food. The mother cat's teets will dry and retract slightly. The only true way to tell if a cat is still nursing kittens is through observation.
It actually goes away naturally. It goes away after a little while after the kittens are done. The mother tries to avoid nursing a kitten after 6 or more weeks.
At 4 or 6 months you need to separate the baby the mother will need to dry up and no the momma will not wean the baby it will let it keep suckling and as long as its suckling the mother will still produce milk
leave it alone don't touch the kittens (they are to fragile at birth I wouldn't touch them until they are at least a week old (unless its winter then I put them in a towel or something). Its a mother cat's nature to eat the umbilical cord and all the blood and other fluids because in the wild usually mother cats hunt, but if they have kittens they can't so they have to eat the fluids and umbilical cord.
yes they do. right after they're born they are still kind of wet from being in the mother cats womb, so the fur is slicked down, but once they get cleaned and dry off they are very furry little cuties :)

Suck You Dry was created in 1991.
If the air is too hot, yes. Young kittens will be cleaned by their mother and should not be washed.
Young kittens should be fed milk, either by the mother or from a bottle. Once they begin to grow teeth they need to be fed soft food first, and then dry food if you wish to feed them dry food as an adult.

The mother's milk will eventually dry up. It's a natural sign that the kittens should be more independent from her - learning to feed themselves on solid food.
Kittens should be kept with their mother for 6-8 weeks. They should be on solid food prior to being removed from their mother. Some kittens ween easier and earlier than others, but the most important thing is the kitten is able to live off dry food before giving up its mom.
You can put out a bowl of dry kitten food and a bowl of water. Call the ASPCA. They will take the mother and kittens. If the mother and her kittens are safe and hidden from preditors (which it doesn't sound like they are) and you feed them they'll stay around. Heat and cold are another problem. Racoons, dogs and coyotes, also are a big problem in some areas and will probably get to the kittens while their mother looks for food.
No, but if they are, that means they are dehydrated.
If a baby ground hogs nose is dry it means that he hasn't had any milk in a while. When they have milk from their mother some of it comes back out through their nose.
