Rosalie & Zoey used to be best of friends, Rosalie even allowed Zoey to nurse off of her (even though she's only 6 weeks older and was not producing any milk). Since Rosalie had the kittens on Tue Zoey wants absolutely NOTHING to do with her and any time she even see's her she just hisses and growls at her till Rosie goes away
Is this "normal"? Is there anything I can do or should I just leave them be? It's making me sad because now Zoey (who is my major cuddle bug) wont even come out of hiding if Rosalie's in the same room as me

Yeah this is pretty normal. Cats are creatures of habit. A new litter arriving is a bunch of new cats. Different scents and everything. It's a huge upheaval for your cats. You need to keep the mother and her babies separate from Zoey, in case she becomes openly aggressive and tries to harm the kittens, or she upsets Rosalie into abandoning them or worse. Over time this should smooth out but it may take a while.

Good Luck!
