I have a siamese-mix female kitten. Her blue eyes continuously shake back and forth. Anyone know why they do that?

Thanks for the smar@@ answer anand..sooooo funny.
The vet just said that's how they are. Didn't give any explanation other than that.

Some cats display rapid eye movement from side to side (up and down and around are also a possibility). This is called nystagmus and most common in Siamese cats and other oriental breeds. It does not affect the sight of the cat and treatment is not necessary. Nystagmus just makes the cat look a little strange.

It has probably had a stroke. That happened to my cat, I miss smoke so much!! R.I.P. Smoke. I love you more than anything in this world.

what do you mean by shake?? kinda sounds like a nerve thing. like the nerve endings migh be damaged. or it could just have a 'twitch'.
