How to handle a kitten
Be gentle and patient when picking up the kitten.
Kittens are very small and fragile, so make sure you're using a very light touch and gentle care. If the kitten shows signs that it doesn't want to be touched, like avoiding your touch or running from your hand, leave it alone and try again at a later time.
Watch out for the mother cat, who may not want anyone handling her kittens. She may bite or scratch people to prevent them from touching the kittens.
