Fostering a mother cat with kittens is a thrilling and gratifying experience. You'll get a close look at how a mother cat looks for her kittens and the stages of their relationship's growth. The role of the foster home is to act as a supportive foster parent by providing a peaceful, safe, and nurturing environment. Mom cats' instincts instruct them to keep their kittens secure, and they need seclusion, calm, and minimal activity to feel protected. Stress can drive cats to become aggressive, fail to adequately care for their kittens, and even engage in extreme behaviors such as cannibalism.

Your job is to provide the mother cat with an atmosphere in which she may feel safe while raising her kittens. For the first two weeks after you bring them home, no foster animals should be permitted to interact with your own pets. This is to protect the foster pets, as well as your own pets, from any infectious agents brought in from the shelter.
