Hello, good day! I have two cats, one female and one male. My female cat recently gave birth to 3 kittens and I've noticed that she had weight loss after the pregnancy. is this normal? Also, she has a bloated belly.

Lilly is feeding kittens, and that uses a lot of energy. That could be the cause of her weight loss. I would feed her a kitten formulated food to give her extra calories. Make sure as well she is up to date on her deworming treatments, as intestinal worms cause weight loss and an enlarged belly. Best of luck.
