What to do if my cat [ eats ] her babies !?

 Cat female breed kitten

Your cat has decided to eat some of her babies and sometimes even the whole body. For the human family this event tends to cause frustration but especially disgust and rejection.

However, this is a behavior that is (to a certain extent) normal in the animal world.


  • Why do females eat their babies? 

There are 4 possible reasons:  

Stress: 
                                           A domestic cat never eats her babies due to stress, but this isn't impossible .Nervous behavior can be triggered by not offering him a peaceful space to give birth or harassing your pet with too much care and attention. Your cat needs more privacy to give birth.
New mothers are more exposed to this behavior,
When stress is able to cancel one's maternal instinct. In fact, it is essential that you offer the expectant mother the best care during the entire period she is pregnant.
