It is perfect to feed the mama cat kitten food as well as long as she is feeding her kittens. This is correct! This should provide her with the energy needed to stay in good condition and also give enough milk to raise her kittens well. Please leave the kittens with their mama until they are 12 weeks old, as she will teach them everything necessary to become good cats (cleaning, toileting, hunting, etc.).
