Cats take their kittens and puts them at a different place. Why do they do that?

Dams (mother cats) hide their kittens to protect them from predators, which can include other cats, dogs, and even birds. She knows that she cannot always be with them, and this keeps them safe while she's away finding food. Even though you may have bonded with the dam, she might move the kittens to a new location after she knows you have discovered her hiding place. It's not personal; it's an instinct, and an extremely good one.

its instinct. The do it to protect them from predators. If they stay in one place too long the smell of the kittens will build up and they could be eaten while the mother is out hunting for food. So she moves them someplace clean and fresh every day or two.

They do this because it is a trait that they were born with to naturally protect their young from any potential dangers.
