hi my momma cat kizma, has had her kittens under my bed and its a dark quiet place they are three weeks old and just started moving around.last night she moved them into her litter box which is in a very lit area and not quiet area i tried to put them back but she just puts them back in the litter box.i thought maybe it was because they are moving out from under the bed so i gave her a box with a sheet in it and she just moves them back to the litter box.she keeps crying and whining at me like she wants me to do something but i dont no what she is wanting please help.thank you ,barb

Hi
I would place their sleeping bed next to the litter box. It sounds to me like your cat wants to start to trin her kittens to use the litter which is a normal process. She may feel that the litter box is too far away and thats why she keeps moving the kittens. If their bed is close by she may feel happier about this.

best wishes Kate
