Teyha had her babies yesterday
, and she is very attentive, but whenever I go into the room, she comes out from under the entertainment center (where she had them) even if she is nursing them or something. She doesn't mind when I pick up the kittens she trailed and put them back into a little pile. I have to do this every so often, so my question is, is it ok for me to be doing this? I know that some mums get angry when you handle their babies. Any advice would be helpful, thanks!!!

If the momcat is okay with this, then it is perfectly fine to do so, as long as the kittens are not handled a lot early on. She sounds like she is just a proud mom and she wants to show off her litter to you- lucky you that she is such an attentive mom and docile with your picking up her kittens.
