Here is a lin to the CFA site.

3. The responsible breeder will not sell kittens before they are 12-14 weeks of age and have been vaccinated. Some pet quality kittens will already be neutered or spayed; others will be contractually required to be altered by a certain age.

But that's not a code of ethics, just what to look for in a good breeder...

I know its not.
I am looking for the code of ethics now.

Here in NZCF the rule is a minimum of 10 weeks and the breeder can get in trouble if they sell a kitten before 10 weeks - the kitten also must leave home with its first vaccination. There are no rules here regarding keeping a kitten a week after it has been vaccinated.
