Have you made arrangements to spay your cat? That will help.

It’s not harmful for your other cat to nurse. She also doesn’t need to drink cat milk.

It isn't uncommon at all, either. We have one member whose cat is nursing on his dog...who started producing milk! AND the dog is spayed. They're content with the arrangement, and no, it doesn't hurt a thing,

How old were her kittens? If they were too young she may be very uncomfortably engorged, which is why she's letting the other cat nurse.

It doesn't hurt anything for the other cat to nurse. She'll cut him off when she's had enough of it. Usually after she's spayed she won't let him do it for long. Although if the vet wants to wait until the milk glands have dried up to spay her (this isn't necessary but some vets prefer it), you might have to separate them.
