My cat had kittens, but she's hot. Kittens need warmth. What to do?

Question

Recently snowy gave birth to litter of kittens. Summers in our area are very harsh. I am keeping snowy in a spare bedroom and it's very hot in there. Nowadays she's panting and trying to escape from the room. I know that kittens need warm temperatures to survive but their mother cannot bear heat. What should I do? Should I move her inside the house? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 1 month old | 4.409 lbs

Hello. If the temperature in your spare room is too uncomfortable for you, then it is too hot for your cat. Room temperature of 68 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit are acceptable. If the room is hotter than that, your cat should not be in there. It would be better to move her to an area with better temperature regulation. Thank you
