Give her this dear:
I run a puppy & kitten rescue from my home in Texas. I use to help Kinky Freedmon run his [he recently ran for Texas Govenor].
Kitten & Nursing Cat Forumla:
[Also a GREAT formula for nursing cats & dogs]
INGREDIENTS:
1 can Pet Milk (evaporated NOT condensed)
2 egg yolks (NO whites - seperate them)
2 Tbsp. Clear Karo Syrup
DIRECTIONS:
Blend all ingredients well.
Feed to kittens with an eyedropper or vet aprooved bottle
DO NOT tilt cat or kitten's back, they can strangle or drown on formula! However adult cats will drink it on their own.
Be sure a kitten's head is facing flat or in a downward position.
Nursing mother cat's NEED vitamin D to replace the vitamin D taken from her body while nursing, the Pet Milk has plenty of this, to help her in her recovery. You should feed her 4 ounces of this daily for the first 4 weeks of nursing. Then 2 oz. per day for the rest of the nursing process, until her kitties are weaned.
For a NURSING Cat:
Feed the mother cat [2 oz.] of fresh raw cow or calf's liver a day, for 7 days.
In addition you may feed her plain Yogurt, this will also prevent yeast and other infections of her uterus after the birthing process. You may also feed 1/2 oz. to kittens 2 weeks old and older. This also helps if the kittens get pink eye [cunjuntivitis] in their eyes, which most newborn kittens do from the contact with germs they come in contact with when coming out of the birth canal.
Cottage cheese is also good IF you can get her to eat it, but puree it in a blender or VitaMix before serving it to her, this will prevent regurgitation. Feed her only 2 oz. of this a day, and DO NOT feed this to kittens under 6 weeks.

Please do not feed your cat tapioca pudding. That is very bad for a cats health. I have sat through many animal births and they will eat and drink when it is time. Just make sure it is abundant for your cat. Water and cat food is the best thing. But pudding of any sort is bad. Even table scraps can jeopardize a cats health. They are just like us when we have a baby. We know just what to do when it is time. Just keep a close eye on her in the mean time. And congrats!

Tapioca would not help her. Give her some vitamins to build strength, try Nutra Cal.
Do you realize that for every 1 person born, there are 7 puppies and kittens
born? At best, 1 will find a forever home.
And don't forget, that every "Free-to-good-home" litter takes homes away
from animals already at the shelter.
STOP letting your pets; or your friends, relatives or co-workers pets
contribute to the problem.
If you love animals, it is NOT ENOUGH to merely say "My pets are fixed".
Vow to educate and enable others to fix their pets too.
Spaying just 1 female dog or cat, will prevent 6 others from ending up in a
shelter the following year.
Please be part of the solution, NOT the problem!
Thank you. ^..^

Tapioca is going to be too high in sugar and hardly any protein, she needs LOTS of fat and protein until the kitties are weaned. Easiest and best thing to do is feed her kitten food-it's tasty and has the calories, vitamins, and protein she needs. If she's a picky eater, get canned kitten food.

Are you sure she's had all the kittens she's going to have? My cat did that when there was a blockage (a dead kitten blocking the exit of the remaining live ones) and needed outside intervention. Suggest you ring the vet and / or take her there.

Offer her fresh water and kitten food (wet or dry). Make sure she is warm and comfy and all kittens are healthy looking. Make sure mama doesn't exclude any kittens, if she does, you have to bottle feed.
Good luck!
