Need advice about kittens?

They were born in a dresser draw. (not on clothes thank god, lol) Now they are 3 weeks old and mama hans't moved them to a bigger place, ugh. They don't have much room to move around and there eyes are open and they are starting to play a bit. I'm thinking about moving them, not far, and in the same quiet area. Big box with room to move around. Is this a good idea or not? Should I just leave it to mommy? She does trust me with them, I can pick them up and walk around with them.Need advice about kittens?
i don't think she'd mind. has she shown any aggression toward any other action?Need advice about kittens?
I think you should just move them. If the mom cat really doesnt like the spot she will move them back or move them somewhere else.
If she trusts you to hold and walk with them then its ok to move them. But she may want to move them back and let her, she will be the one who has to be the boss.
If the Mama lets you handle them, then you can certainly move them. Were I you, I'd start by just removing the whole drawer from the dresser and placing it in a quiet corner. Put some water and kitten food next to it, and also a litter box very nearby.





Good luck!
Yes it would be a good idea to move them to a bigger area.
just move them, but make sure the mother is with them when you move them into the box, move her with one of the kittens, so shell know where they are right off and shell be more likely to leave them there
well there old enough to be touched so what i would do is let them walk and play around on the floor and then when you think they played enough put them back in the drawer so then the mom dont get mad...:D
Hi my cat had kittens about 8 weeks ago, there was 5 little cuties. Shes an outside cat so she could of had them anywhere. She ended up having them in a box right outside our door. Anyway... it was also where cars come and go, so when they were prob 3-4 weeks i moved them out to our barn, the place she had them wasnt safe or bigg enough. Anyway... When I moved them my cat hailey moved them to a different place, so i moved them back. Anyway she did that alot but i just kept moving them back where it was safe and warm, eventually after moving them like 5 times she finally left them. So if you have a better place for them then move them it could prevent danger for them...
You should be able to move them. They will be getting out and running around and playing in the next week anyway. Make sure you set up a litter box once they decide to get out and play. They will naturally use the litter box, but they need to learn where it is. I would put it right next to the box you set up for their bed. Also I set up a box next to their food dish when they start eating. Good luck and enjoy them! They are just strting to get cute and fun!!
I believe the mother does trust you, move the little darlings.
You can move them cause i have a cat and i moved her babies and they were fine just make sure mommy trusts you
you can move them. Just be careful and make sure she watches you do it so she knows whats going on and that it was you that moved them.
It might be a good idea to just move one to a new place and see how mom reacts. Cats move their young fairly often and it's surprising that she hasn't. If their old enough to pick up without harming them, it shouldn't be a problem.
if theyre eyes are opened and they are starting to play then i think that it is ok to carry them around a bit.


and if the mother gets protective then i would just leave it up the mother.


or just find a bigger qieter area,and put the mom in there with them so she know where to find her babys.
I grew up with my cat having litter after litter. We always moved them and they were fine.
