It's best to allow the kittens to be with their mother until 8 weeks old. Some humane societies are waiting until kittens are 10-12 weeks old, before allowing their adoptions. I think 10-12 weeks is a bit too old, and 5-6 weeks, too young. I adopted 2 kittens when they were 7 weeks old, and I believe they could have used that extra week with their mothers.
