Handle them with a towel until they are 4 days old, but be very CAREFUL you can break a bone by touching a kitten. i advise you to let the mama cat take care of the kitten for a while. They know what they're doing.
as long as they are genlty patting (not hitting) and the mother cat is not upset by the children touching the kittens i dont see why not Make sure they dont touch them until the kittens' eyes are open otherwise the mother might get mad and could stop taking care of them .
Yes, and this can help to socialize them to the smell and touch of humans. However, you should be very careful - the mother cat may not like you touching her kittens, and the kittens will be very fragile so you have to be very gentle. You should also limit your time touching the kittens to when the mother is nursing them so you don't interrupt their sleep - newborn kittens sleep the vast majority of the day.
just leave the mother and the kittens leave fresh water and food out for her. don't touch the kittens until the kittens can walk at least or if the mother cat trusts you and doesn't get mad and start hissing, you can probably play with the kittens at an earlier time. When the kittens get older only leave water and they will start to drink it. Never give milk to kittens when they are still small because they sometimes have an allergic reaction that could possibly kill them. hope this helps.
You can touch the kittenI wouldn't think so, as the cat around my house just had kittens and I held them from day one.

Depends on the queen. Mine let me touch them the second they were born. She insisted on me helping her and handleing her kittens.
It is appropriate to touch kittens when they are calm and approach you willingly. Avoid touching them when they are eating, sleeping, or showing signs of fear or aggression.
