What is the kitten birthing process like for a cat?

The kitten birthing process for a cat, also known as labor and delivery, typically involves three stages: early labor, active labor, and delivery of the kittens. During early labor, the cat may become restless and seek a quiet, secluded area to give birth. In active labor, the cat will experience strong contractions and begin to deliver the kittens. The delivery process can last several hours, with each kitten being born in its own amniotic sac. The mother cat will then clean and nurse her newborn kittens. It is important to provide a quiet and comfortable environment for the mother cat during this time.
