Kittens should stay with their mother until they are twelve weeks old. Ten weeks at the very earliest.
Kittens six to eight weeks old have not learned any important socialisation or behaviour skills yet, which kittens learn from eight weeks onwards. During this time kittens will learn how to play and interact with their littermates, mother and any other animals and humans in the house.
They will learn what behaviour is acceptable and what is not from their mother, and will learn how to play and share with their littermates. They will also learn about grooming and litterbox use at this crucial time. Most kittens are well socialised by the time they are twelve weeks old, and are very likely to grow into very gentle and affectionate pets.
Cat pregnancy usually lasts 8-9 weeks from conception. Once born, the kittens can start weaning from about 6-7 weeks, its usually good to put off rehousing them until they are around 12 weeks old, as they get a chance to learn social and other skills.
Until ten to twelve weeks old. Keeping kittens with their mothers and siblings until they are twelve weeks old is ideal.
Sadly, too many kittens are taken away from their mothers too early, usually around six to eight weeks old (some kittens aren't even weaned properly at that age). They have had no chance to learn what behaviour is good or bad, and behavioral problems will become apparent as the kitten gets older which, often, are difficult to correct.
