She is close to having her kittens, however bleeding is not normal. Are you sure it is normal blood? Or is it watery pinkish liquid. If it is the latter, then she may be starting with birth. If it is real blood please take her to an emergency veterinarian right away as she may either have a miscarriage, or may have problems having her kittens and needs help.
