At what age should you start brushing your kitties? Is 6wks old too young? Should I use a comb or a brush? (I have a comb, a undercoat rake, and a slicker)

If the kitten is longhair, a small fine tooth comb would be best to get them used to being combed. While you might want to use a brush now, its not a good idea because as the hair gets longer, your kittens will get matted.
Those that show longhair cats, start kittens with combs and not brushes.

You can brush them but kittens don't usually shed that young. Jake just started shedding at 6-7 months. If their fur is really long you can brush them to prevent mats but otherwise I see no need.
