Mother cats need extra food to nurse and take care of their young.

About your cat (who recently gave birth to kittens) not being satisfied with
one tin of food and scavenging for more...is that a 3.5 oz can? a larger can?
Did you mention this to a vet? The call shouldn't be more than, say, $.25-.50
cents & might be answered without you having to bring the mother cat in for an
exam..Wow!
