If the kittens are are particularly young, shaking or trembling is a normal occurrence. Young kittens tend to shiver when they are cold, so it is recommended that they are checked and provide them with extra towels and blankets to help them stay warm.

Some cats will purr so loudly that they make their bodies shiver, or will shiver when petted or particularly happy. This would likely be similar to when a cat's tail trembles when it is excited or happy, but happening to other parts of the cat's body instead.

If your cat doesn't seem to be in pain, or doesn't have any other changes in behavior, it is probably nothing to worry about. Do keep in mind, however, that cats will sometimes purr when they are sick, and if there is anything different about your cat, due as changes in behavior or daily habits such as eating, it may be wise to take the cat to the vet for a check-up, just in case.
