It's fine! We've had several members here whose cats have had litters close together, and who have co-nursed and co-parented. You just have to make sure that all the kittens are nursing well and gaining weight.

As long as the age difference is not too great between the litters things should be fine. You just don't want bigger kittens bullying the smaller ones off nipples.

When is your second kitty due?
