Pregnant Cat Issues?
Momma cat gave birth yesterday. 3 healthy babies. Today, we opened the door to the bathroom (the place she gave birth), and she moved the kittens. (Under the couch btw). Now she would stand outside my bedroom door and stare at me, sometimes meow. Right now she is laying with me. Is that okay? Why is she doing this? For comfort? I don't know if she's rejecting or abandoning the kittens or if she just wants a small break to be comfortable. Plus she meows at me every time I stopped petting her.

FINE... Mamma Cat knows what she is doing. She picked a safe place.
Years ago one picked a lower dresser drawer while it was open.
Warm and Cozy is what she wants.
Talkative cats are usually in families that spend a lot of time talking back to them.
You could try getting one of those pet beds with a hood, putting the kittens in it if the mum allows.
Three kittens is good for a first time.
Check with the VET for shots, etc.

It's very normal for a momma to move her kittens around. As long as she is providing milk, warmth, and good care often, she is doing her job:). She just wants your attention. She's the one who wants to be pampered with love instead of having to do it for her kittens. It's been stressful for her I bet, so she just wants to relax and get some comfort. Make sure she is feeding them every 2-3 hours. Also, when the mom is with you, make sure the babies are warm 24/7. Put them in a bed with lots of blankets. If she sits with you for over an hour, you can put a heating pad under the blankets so the kittens don't get too cold. Enjoy:)! xx
