A mother cat will usually nurse her kittens multiple times throughout the day, typically every 2-3 hours during the first few weeks after birth. Newborn kittens have small stomachs and need frequent feedings to get enough nourishment and stay hydrated. As the kittens grow older and start to eat solid food, the frequency of nursing sessions may decrease gradually. However, even as they transition to solid food, the mother cat may continue to nurse them periodically until they are fully weaned, which usually occurs around 6-8 weeks of age.
