Pregnant cat chose my home as her forever home, need some advice please.

I actually have another question if that's alright. She had them right behind the sofa, exactly where I knew she had chosen, I guess I shouldn't have let get come out of the bathroom. How can I move them to a better and safer place without causing get distress?

It best to let her move them if she decide to so if she chosen behind the sofa, she might move them but i see why you might want them moved, you could try making a nesting box and put their blankets in there and try move them there.

I can persuade my cat to be ok moving the kittens when they were babies if needed without causing her distress but since i don't know your cat, it might be different

I'm gonna give it a shot, wearing gloves of course. The babies are on top of one of my son's water guns, it just looks uncomfortable. I'll let you know how it goes.

You don't need gloves, she won't stop taking care of them just because they have your scent.

She may try move them back, while you doing it

Is that your only bathtub?

 

[catloverinfla]

No, I have one more and another half bath but I have a huge tote that I'm gonna try. I've put a heating pad on one side and a blanket over. Last spring this same thing happened, I recused s cat that some deviant was trying to set on fire, she turned out to be pregnant also and the tote thing worked. I guess we will see. I have put up all other cats.

Ok, could you just remove the water guns instead?

 

[catloverinfla]

I didn't see this before. I have moved them, she didn't fuss. I gave her some food and water to, she looks happy and content. The babies are just precious. All seem happy at the moment. Thank you for all of your help. It was greatly need and appreciated

I think she understood why you wanted to moved them
