I don't fully know your situation or why you can't bring the cat/kittens to a vet. If it's a money thing, check with the local SPCA to see if they offer low cost or no cost spaying. That is the only thing that will keep your cat from having kittens again. To answer your question as to why the kittens are dying, again there is not enough information here. It could be several reasons. The round bellies make me think that it could be parasites of some kind. Or, it could be that the mother is not lactating enough. It could be a genital defect or a problem with the mother's diet. Of course there is always the threat of disease and sickness. A vet would be the only person who could answer that question for you. Sorry, I wish I could have been of more help. Your best bet is to have the cat sterilized so you don't have to deal with the loss of more kittens. Good luck.

It really doesn't matter what the kittens may or may not have died from. You should not waste your money trying to figure that out. You should spend your money having your cat spayed so that she doesn't have to go through the trauma of having more kittens that die.
Maybe she is passing a gene to the kittens that shows up after the kittens are born, maybe there is a communicable disease in your house or that the mom is harboring, or maybe she is just a bad mom? Who knows, it doesn't really matter, she needs to be spayed and then you can enjoy your pet cat.

4 months ago your cat had kitten...then they died...every litter we had after died the same way...
Ok, so how many litters of kittens have you had born in your house in the last 4 MONTHS!?!?!?!?
This sounds to me to be "Feline Distemper", and is a horrible way for kittens to die. It can be spread by so many different ways, blood, food, mother's milk, litter boxes, and can hang around the area. It is serious and you need to quarantined and disinfect every inch of where your cats live. The virus can live for a YEAR OR MORE in the home, and is hard to kill with househould cleaners. It totally matters how these cats died, and if it is Distemper all your cats need to be Vetted ASAP
YOUR CATS NEED TO BE VACCINATED, and you need to get these breeding cats fixed even if you need to give every one of them to the ASPCA or cat rescue.

sounds like distemper. When Distemper gets in the soil and the house it's very hard to irradicate. You can vaccinate your cats, keep them indoors, and clean everything with Nutra Quat or Virkon.
Nutra Quat would be available from a janitorial supply and Virkon is available through large animal feed stores or vets. Throw away all plastic bowls, use stainless steel and sterilze them regularilily, throw out the litter box, get new ones and use disposable liners. Dispose of all waste promptly and again the number one thinkg is vaccinate and keep the cat/kittens inside. Vaccinate kittens at 6, 8, and 10 weeks for sure... see a vet, they can help you with a diagnosis and treatment options...

If you cannot afford vet care for your animal for goodness sake stop letter her have kitten. You are killing kittens and soon the mother. Call you local ASPCA they often can help you get the cat neutered for free or very low cost. She obviously isn't healthy enough to have babies. So please stop punishing her.
I firmly don't think anyone should have a pet if they cannot afford to take care of it. Pets are like adding a child to your home....they deserve to be treated well and vet care is a must.

SPAY your cat if you cannot a afford a vet. Spay your cat anyway if she doesn't have papers and isn't show quality. If you can't afford to spay your cat, contact your local animal control, humane society and SPCA. Contact all 3 if need be. Many have low cost or no cost programs for those that cannot afford it.
The symptoms you describe could be a disease or worms. Really no way that I know of to stop it without a vet.

no, cats can no longer get canines parvo. they are in a place to get a tom cat version of the disease that's often called distemper. Cats can besides the undeniable fact that unfold canines parvo by using monitoring the virus to diverse places on their ft (in simple terms like human beings can). however the cat can no longer get the canines parvovirus that killed your canines. Your different canines can capture it and die from it besides. it fairly is pretty contagious. Please call your vet immediately to get training on the thank you to quarantine the different canines and the thank you to disinfect your abode and land. canines can capture parvo from contaminated soil, contaminated bedding, contaminated fixtures..and so on.. for as much as two years after the preliminary an infection so which you're able to use a definite viruscide to absolutely sparkling each thing. Have your oher canines vaccinated against it immediately, be confident to tell the vet health center that they have been uncovered to it so as that they are in a place to take precautions as they could have you ever use a separate front or perhaps pop out on your automobile to tackle the canines and do the vaccines. Sorry approximately your canines.

You most definitely should take her in to a vet. No one can give a diagnosis with such vague symptoms over the internet or phone. She needs to be seen and spayed so that more kittens dont die!

Panleukopenia is primarily spread through contact with an infected cat's bodily fluids, feces, or fleas. The virus may also sometimes spread through contact with bedding, food dishes, or even by handlers of infected cats.
The virus primarily attacks the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, causing internal ulceration and, ultimately, total sloughing of the intestinal epithelium. This results in profuse, usually bloody diarrhea, causing severe dehydration, malnutrition, anemia, and often death; mortality rate 60-90%

GET YOUR CAT SPAYED! do you know how many cats are living on the street because there is such an overpopulation? do you know how many cats get put to sleep every year because of overpopulation? if you can't afford to take the kittens to the vet, how can you afford to feed them if they do live? Shop around, you can get your cat spayed for as little as 60.00, only is you shop around.
