I think she moved her nest to your sister's room, so you might want to put whatever blankets you have for her in there. It sounds like it's warmer in there anyway. How old is your sister? Will she bother the kittens?

my sister is 12 years old and she would protect them from my other brothers and sisters her mucus plug has not fall out yet but her water broke 2 days ago she sleep alot and eat less every day. And is it normal for 1 kitten to die or they should survive with good care from mother.

It is not normal for kittens to die, though there may be a runt that needs extra help from you. Are there other animals in your house? Can you keep them out of your sister's room and the mom cat in?

Are you a minor as well?

They should survive with good care from mom! It's good to know that your sister is responsible! [emoji]128522[/emoji]

The biggest sign is contractions that don't stop. They look like ripples in her belly. She will be uncomfortable, and move positions often. She will lick herself a lot, and may have clear or pinkish discharge.

If she's having contractions for real, then there will be kittens by tomorrow most likely.

Most babies are born healthy! They mew, and find a nipple and nurse a lot. They also sleep a lot. As long as they nurse they will grow and be healthy. Try not to worry! [emoji]128522[/emoji]

This is normal. It will get even more until she is pushing. She is having her kittens. It could take a few hours. Stay calm! [emoji]128522[/emoji]

It sounds like she's probably in labor. She'll likely have her kittens tonight or tomorrow. It depends on how quickly her labor goes. She's right on target!
