How close is Preggers to birthing?
At 4-5wks, the kitts will be close to weaning age and can begin on solid foods. If Preggers is close to birthing, I would remove the orphans and bottle or hand-feed w/out the pregnant cat's assistance. If she is several weeks away from birthing, the orphans could remain with her long enough to transition to solid foods and again, I'd remove them from the pregnant cat's care so they don't drag down her condition before birthing her next litter.
Best of luck,
