Since having her litter of 5 kittens late friday my himi has moved them 3 times, we have a fairly quiet household (just my husband and I ) and have kept kitten visitors to a minimum (none since saturday), last litter she moved only once, anyone else seen this.

From what I've read on this site, she's probably moving them because she doesn't think they are safe. Is there a space you could confine them in- a large dog crate or a small bathroom??

She could be feeling a draft that you're not aware of, or there may be a scent she is not liking around the babies.

I think it's okay to just leave them where she takes them, as long as its safe for the babies. Sometimes momma cats will move them 35 times if they feel like they aren't safe enough.
