Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If they lady that gave the vaccines gave them within the last 24 hours, that can definitely cause a kitten to be more tired or sore than usual. Also, coming into a new home/environment is also stressful and causes some new pets to sleep more. If the kitten isn't more active by morning, or isn't eating or drinking or having vomiting or diarrhea, I would take her to see a vet. I would also recommend updating their vaccine in about 1 week- Tractor supply vaccines are not guaranteed and your kittens may not be protected. Good luck and congrats on the new babies!
