My cat had kittens about 8 weeks ago. She hid them in a in the basement and they didn't have any light or human contact. I have brought them upstairs and put them in a pack and play. They are very timid but except for one they will let me handle them. Is there anything else I should do besides handle them daily? Should I completely separate them from the mother, she is very protective? The mother was a feral cat that has never been very affectionate with people and will only let me pet her. She repeatedly tries to take them back in the basement. I don't want to wind up with five kittens and two cats. I have people who want the kittens but I want to make sure that they are turning into housecats before I send them off. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You keep the kittens for 8 weeks some people put their cats to the vet to get spayed and wile she is away sell as much of the kittens as you can if the mothe is very protective of them you should shut her in a room and don't let her see them and eventually she should forget about them you are doing all you can do just keep handling them daily and see how they go
