However, the number can vary quite a bit depending on factors like:
* Cat breed: Some breeds are known for larger litters (e.g., Maine Coons).
* Age of the mother cat: Younger cats tend to have larger litters.
* Overall health: A healthy mother cat can produce larger litters.
It's important to note that litters of 10 or more kittens are rare. If you encounter a cat with a litter of that size, it's essential to contact a veterinarian or animal shelter for help.
