Hey everyone about 12 hours ago my cat went into labor and has popped out 3 kittens. I can tell there is more in here at least 2 maybe 3 more cuz her belly is still hard and I believe I felt sone still moving. Ahe gave birth to the 3rd last night at 3 am and has since stopped goving birth. She isn't pushing from what I can tell... Us this normal?

Yes, cats can give birth many hours or even days apart. She will deliver the kittens when her body is ready.

My cat has just had one at 5am this morning. Then a 12 hour gap and a sadly deceased kitty at 5pm and then 20 mins later a 3rd alive kitty. I have no idea how long this lasts. I am amazed and so emotional

The above advice still stands. She may also just have an enlarged uterus which will shrink post-partum.

Why do you have your friend's cat? Will they both be spayed?

Have you fixed the male yet? Can you talk to your friend about the benefits of fixing cats? If they are going to be under your care, I think you need to have input in important medical decisions.
