OK, Marigold gave birth to her kittens (six in all) in a birthing box in my closet. When the babies were about four days old, she kept trying to move them under my bed. Not safe, trust me. So we blocked off the bed and gave her a big dog crate (cleaned and sanitized). She moved the kittens in there no problem.
Now, less than a week later, she's trying to the move them again! We had to throw out the birthing box because it was falling apart, so the closet is no longer a good place. Under the bed is blocked off by storage boxes. So she keeps dropping the kittens under my office chair (while I'm in it!).
How can I get her to stop moving them? It's getting to be a headache keeping her from moving them somewhere completely inappropriate.
Any suggestions?
