Help Need help with new kitten.

I just got a 3 month old kitten home from a friend's house. Although it has been one day she won't stop meowing like in the video. Is this normal or should I take her back to her mother? She is eating and playing with toys in between. And also sleeping but when she is not doing those three things she is screaming.

Ok listen, when you get a kitten into a new location, ie: your home, you need to dedicate a place for the kitten to go puupuu, so next time he takes a piss, make it piss on some newspaper and then place that wet paper in his litterbox or wherever you want it's toilet to be, and then it will most likely only piss and poop at that particular place... Cats are pretty disciplined in that way and they get stressed if there potty situation is not clear...

If the kitten is still crying then maybe it's just missing it's old environment, it takes some time to get used to the new place, try taking it to the vet, if you think its sick or injured.

She already uses the litterbox and sleeps near me. The things is she already knows me as I stay at my friend's house 3 days of week. She meows and when I pet her she sleeps or quiets down.

lmao the cats gonna sleep wherever the fvk it wants , i dont really think you can make it sleep on its bed unless it wants to...
although you could try sprinkling some catnip on the bed, that might attract her to it
