I have a litter of orphan kittens that I estimate are about 8 weeks old (they are weaned). I have homes lined up for most of them, so now I'm wondering at what age I should rehome them. I know 8 weeks is the minimum and some people prefer to wait til 12 weeks, or some time in between. My question is, do you think it's especially important for orphaned kittens to stay with their litter mates longer as opposed to kittens that are with their mother?
