Answer 1

Congratulations. When a cat moves her kittens, that means she found what she feels is a safer spot for her them. This means you make her feel safe and she knows that you would let nothing harm her babies.
If you need a break from kitten-sitting try this:
Wear an old shirt you don't mind getting dirty before showering. Get your smells on it. Place it in the box you want her kittens to be in and place the box next to where you usually sit, like in your room or by a comfy chair you like to relax in.
Mama kitty might be happy to smell your presence and keep her babies there.
And she might not, but it's worth a try.

Answer 2

animals tend to move their offspring around to places that feel safe and secure. If your cat gave birth in the bed with you sleeping right there, you should feel honored that your cat is so trusting of you!! Usually cats are very secretive with their kittens, you know like sometimes they give birth under houses or the couch or somewhere away from everyone and everything. Perhaps your cat feels that her kittens are very protected in your presence so where ever you are , her kittens should be. She'll stop moving them around once they get too big to carry around! You shouldnt worry about the kittens if they look healthy, but if youre planning to sell them, take them to the vet and get them shots.

Awesome Mommy Cat. She trusts you a lot to leave her babies with you. Feel honored as that is not always the case.
I am going to ask you to read the link I give you and then choose the food according to what you read from the other link.
http://catinfo.org/ This will tell you the perfect diet for any cat.

http://www.geocities.com/jmpeerson/canfood.html pick a high protein low under 10% carb canned food. Fish no more than 1 or two meals a week if you must feed it.

Answer 4

In the wild related female cats help each other raise their young, the males are basically only DNA donors. You must be a great owner, the mother cat trusts you completely, the kittens will be well socialized to humans, they will make great pets for whomever adopts them.

Answer 5

Sounds like she trusts you with her babies. Maybe she's just a little weird. If the kittens are healthy don't worry about it. As they get bigger she'll stop doing it.

Answer 6

Gotta lover her... because she undoubtly loves and trusts you! SHe also is trying to really keep her babies warm so maybe she will go eat and drink, take time out for herself for grooming. Look at it this way.. you and your cat have a true bond going on. You are her security blanket!

Answer 7

She is very attached to you and trust you with her kitties. Offer her a box that is easy to jump in and out of, for the safety of the kitties. Put blankets down, or newspaper.

Answer 8

Perfectly normal.
She's being where she feels most safe and good. Likewise, bringing her kits to you means she is sharing with you because she loves you and trust you'll care for them.
Congratulations, Auntie!
