What are the do's and don't of finding newborn kittens?
When finding newborn kittens, the primary goal should be to ensure their safety and survival.

Therefore, the first step should be to see whether the mother is present and able to care for the kittens, rather than immediately interfering. If a capable mother is available, then little else is needed except perhaps a watchful eye in case anything goes wrong. If a mother cannot be found, then it is safe to take the kittens to a vet, a shelter, or to your own home. If the choice is to personally adopt them, it is critical that proper bottle-feeding and weening techniques are followed.
