    Yes, she is too old. Please be merciful and get her spayed. The next litter could kill her.

    A lot of mother animals eat their babies if they die. It's a survival instinct so the smell doesn't draw predators to their nest, and it gives them nutrients to care for the other babies.

    She might be too old, or too small, to have kittens. You should really think about getting her spayed.
