Giving Kittens Away

[SarahFair]

What is the best age?
My KiKi gave birth to 4 kittens on June 6. They are 13 weeks old now but still nursing on and off.
I wanted to wait till they were fully naturally weaned by KiKi and keep them together as long as possible for good social behaviors (plus I love them all!).
The SO says it should be soon as people are going to want cute little kittens.. not cute awkward staged ones.

Best to give them away after spayed or neutered, to help make sure they don't contribute to the "too many pesky cats" problem

I've seen that done at 8 weeks, so seems like these guys should be good candidates!

Many places will do it right at the 2lb mark. Make sure you get momma done too, as she can get rebred while nursing.

8-10 weeks would be a normal range for kittens and puppies.

10-12 weeks is actually a better age for them as far as social development goes, in my personal opinion.

8 WKS by law, get mom spayed before she gets pregnant again
