When could you give away baby kittens?
Let the mother cat look after the kittens for a few days. Just keep an eye on them and make sure she's feeding them, grooming them and caring for them. After a few days, maybe eight days, since they should open their eyes after eight days, only you should touch them. Limit the amount of visitors and make sure the cat and her kittens are somewhere quiet, where they won't be disturbed. Don't touch the kittens much and make sure they only look at their mother as their mother. If the kittens start following you or mewling for you, don't go near them for a while. Once the kittens are wandering about on their own, they should be okay to be properly handled.
