Question

A litter of kittens can have one or more fathers?

Answer 1

Yes, a litter of kittens can have one or more fathers. This is because cats are able to store sperm in their reproductive tract for up to a week after mating. As a result, a female cat can mate with multiple males and the kittens in the litter can have different fathers.

Answer 2

A little known fact is that kittens in a single litter can have different fathers. There could even be as many fathers as there are kittens! The ability to produce a litter of kittens fathered by more than one tom cat is called superfecundation.
