Newborn kittens don't what to do

Did she birth them in the dog house?

Yes, this morning.

How long does it take for a cat to relocate kittens? There are still three left behind.

Sometimes a mother cat will take time between moving the first kitten and coming back for the rest, but sometimes a mother just moves 1 or 2 and abandons the rest. I have also seen a mother cat move out one kitten and then come back to care for the others in the original spot. Is the mother a stray or someone's pet?

A stray.

How's the little mama cat and kittens doing today? Did she successfully move all the babies?

I brought them in last night to feed them and keep them warm. She came around just now. So, I have them back in the dog house to see if she will take them away.

She is probably close by, because I can hear the ones she moved earlier.

On the plus side. They did really well last night and seem to be thriving.
