A grey mother cat is grooming her newborn kittens on a white blanket. The mother cat is in a contorted position, with one hind leg raised in the air, while licking the area around her udders where the kittens are clustered. Two tiny black kittens are visible, one partially obscured by the mother's leg, and the other nestled close to her chest. The background shows a tufted, light brown upholstered surface, possibly a sofa or bed. The lighting is soft and even, suggesting an indoor environment.
