If you get the cat with 8 weeks, there's no way it can learn all the social behaviours needed (how to get clean is the easiest part). The cat needs to play with the other kittens to learn how to use their claws properly (the peak period of this 'social play' is between 9 and 14 weeks). They need to learn the variety of other things in the world like loud noises, radio, other animals like dogs. The longer they learn this in their trusted environment together with the other kittens, the better.
Giving kitten away with 8 weeks is a fine example of "i have no clue, but i want the money as soon as possible".
