I heard that cats like to go and hide somewhere to have kittens... well there isnt really anywhere for her to go hide because every room is used every day... where do you think she will have them?

She will have them where ever she feels comfortable. She`ll probably choose a closet.

cats will find a place to have their kittens either in a closet or behind furniture or under furniture, my cat had hers in a box we left out for her but we left her alone and we were gone too. Watch where she goes she'll find a place and just leave her when she gets ready to have them, as long as its safe we had every room used in the house and yes they like to go hide. trust me she'll find a place maybe even a place you wouldn't think about like behind washer or dryer, under the bed or dresser just a few examples. The main thing is to leave her alone once she's found a place and after she has them but check on the babies to make sure they are all healthy..Good Luck and Congratulations

She will probably try to find a closet, or under the bed. My cat has had kittens in both places. Leave them wherever they have them for the first few days, then you can place them in a box with blankets and whatnot. If you touch them too much, she might try to kill them, especially if its her first litter. Make sure she can't get outside, because she might try to have them somewhere unsafe.

I had that same problem and someone told me to get a box and put an old blanket or towel in it and show the mother cat where it is. Put her in it a few times so she will know that it is for her. Cats love boxes. You may need to wipe her fur with it before you put the blanket or towel into the box so she will have her scent on it and stay with it. It worked for my cat and several others that I told their owners about it.

If you haven't already, prepare a box laid with blankets, that's a good option, and one she'll probably use, for best chances, put it somewhere quiet (if all your rooms are used a lot everyday, put it in a closet or under a bed). Make sure she doesn't get outside as it could be dangerous.

Make up some boxes for her, large ones with lots of space. Keep an eye on her. The muscus plug will pass and when she starts to go into labour, get her comfortable in one of the boxes. You may have to put her in there a few times but she will eventually stay.

it all depends on your cat. some will try to get outside to have them. My kitty however followed me around all day, and once i sat down on the couch she curled up with me for like 30 min then she started going into labor, she had her baby's right in my fricken lap, and she let me hold them and pet them right after they were born.
