8-10 weeks sounds fine, they will be pushed away by their mom when she knows its time anyway, so that should be revealed by her, anyway the mom should probly be wormed along with the babies before you they are given away, mommies pass the worms on during nursing, i used to work in an animal shelter and often had to take care of baby kitties whose eyes hadnt even opened yet, so cute, they mostly did fine and sometimes were rehomed, we even had a foster mommy cat called martha who used to love snuggling up with various abandoned kitties and taking care of them , i at the mo have 4 feral cats living in my garden whose mommy wont go near them now cause they are grown up , i take care of them and her just by giving them a little place to live in and some food twice a day and will be gettin them neutered soon too, so anyway tell your friend that there is nothin really to giving them away as long as she doesnt do it whilst they are still weaning, and the time line you have seems cool enough.:)

Doctor Spoc,

Unless you have something to add about pets/animals, you're in the wrong place. Go on over to Personal Issues
