No. Newborn kittens do not have venom in their claws.

There are a number of real and unreal reasons for people to believe that kittens have venom in their claws:

* Some people are allergic to cats and may have associated the claw touch with the reaction.

* Claws come into contact with a number of things (including the litter box) - a scratch may get infected as a result and seem like "poison."

* Some parents don't want their younger children to play with the kittens, so they tell them that their claws have venom to keep them away.
