Well, he needs to go to the vet anyway for shots, ask him then. It could be a siamese mix and still have the crossed eyes.

It'snot common for cats to be dark brown so your little one may have Siamese, Oriental, Burmese or Tonkinese ancestory ... & a lot of Siamese cats are prone to having cross eyes. I'm sure that it won't affect him or her too much. However, as has already been suggested, have a word with your vet when you take the kitten along for his vaccinations.
The website that I found says that if it is an inherited condition, no treatment is recommended as the abnormality is generally a cosmetic problem which does not affect the quality of life. And as the kitten is so young it seems most likely to be inherited, so I would try not to worry.

I had a cross-eyed Siamese. It is ok for its eyes to be crossed. The vet can't change that.
Don't expect your cat to be a hunter. My Siamese was not much good at hunting. He also had a problem with mirrors. He was sure there was another cat in there.
Just love your cat and enjoy him. My cross-eyed Siamese was the best cat I ever had. He was very loyal and loving.

Well, he needs to go the vet anyway. Ask about his eyes just to be safe. Good luck!
