How Old Should Kittens Be to Leave Their Mother? Kittens need time to learn how to socialize and play. As with any animal, it is best to allow a new baby kitten to have some time with his mother before introducing him to a new home. That way your new furry friend will adapt better and have time to learn some valuable life lessons first. The earliest that a kitten should leave itâs mother is 4 weeks. Eight weeks is the average age for weaning from the mother and introduction of solid foods. If you plan on bringing home a new furry little friend, 8 to 12 weeks would be an ideal age.
