Was the kitten weaned too young, or separated from mother before it was ready to stop nursing? That is the only thing I can think of. Maybe the texture of the dog's mouth reminds kitty of it's momma.
Another Answer
I agree that the cat may have been weaned too young, however kneading is also a comforting motion it often means that the animal is content and feel secure with whom they are kneading on.
House cats usually do not do this, but sometimes male cats kill kittens (but don't eat them) to force the female cats back into heat. This is a way of making sure the next litter is his if he is not sure whose kittens are in this litter.
This is more common in feral cats and large wild cats.
She's probably not separating them. She's moving them to a new location and she can only carry one at a time.
Some do this to keep their son/daughter warm, or to hide them. Unfortunately some inexperienced mothers accidentally smother her kittens by lying on them.
Kittens depend on their mother's milk for survival. Kittens cannot go longer than an hour without milk.

The cat is just using it's maternal instincts. Assuming from you saying that this cat is already a mother, she would be even more lenient about helping a pup.
I have no idea as i have never observed with so much interest like you , even i want to know
Mother and Baby turtles don't really have relationships. Most of the time the mother lay her eggs, and then leaves the nest. The babies rarely if not ever meet their mom.
A mother cat will likely reject a kitten if A: It is painful for her to nurse (this is a health issue, and needs to be checked out) or B: The kitten is unhealthy (also, should receive vet care). The most likely, is that the kitten is unhealthy, and the mother can see that. She will very likely let an unhealthy kitten die, while she tends to the stronger ones. In this case, you need to worry about two things: Keeping the kitten fed, and making sure it receives the nutrients that its body requires, and making sure that the kitten does not freeze to death. Kittens do not generate enough body heat to sustain themselves. If the mother will still lay with the kitten/let it be close to her, she will supply the heat. If not, you need to keep the kitten warm. Also contact your vet about the best way to do this, and a good brand of kitten formula to give the kitten. A common misconception is that cats like milk. This is true, but it is -extremely- unhealthy for both your cat, and even more so for the young kitten. Do NOT give a kitten milk, give it kitten formula. You can find this at any feed store, and probably just about any pet store. You will need to feed the kitten every few hours (ask your vet how often, for how old the kitten is), and it may require a dedication that you or your family is unable to provide. If this is the case, try to find someone that can foster the kitten more effectively.
no they lay dog eggs and cats lay cat eggs elephants has nothing to do with this
No. Cats are placental mammals, meaning they give birth to live young. The only egg-laying mammals (monotremes) are platypuses and echidnas.
The mother cat's behavior is completely normal. Kitten corpses cannot lay around because of the potential for disease and attracting other predators. Survival instincts and maternal instinct to protect her other kittens wins on this one.
Baby ducks lay under the mother to keep worm.
Baby frogs!
It's a sign of comfort. They did this a babies to get milk from their mother.

Eagles, like all birds, lay eggs.
Wild cats do not lay eggs. They are mammals. Like humans, they give birth to their young.
Yes, some lay eggs and others are mammals. But, the mother does not care for the baby, it must survive off instinct and the only thing that a mother gives its baby is the chance to swim away before its tempted to eat it.
Mammals do not lay eggs. Fertilization occurs in the mother's body, and then the mother carries her baby inside her womb and gives birth. Humans, cats, dogs, whales, deer, and bears are examples of mammals. With other animals like fish, birds, skakes, and lizards (to name a few) the femals lay eggs outside of her body and then the male fertilizes them, and the babies hatch outside of the eggs.
they are born in eggs then when they come out there mother leaves them and they are by them sefs they end up having to find shelter
He crawls but before he craws the mother has to hold him. Otherwise he will lay newborns can sit up on their own.
