As long as it is eating, drinking, pooping, and urinating then just watch it. Some kittens develope later than others. There is other nuerological problems that could be wrong but its a little early to detect that and its really expensive, use that money to fix the momma cat. If the kitten is not eating, drinking, pooping and /or urinating something is wrong and honestly its best to put it down. I'm sorry you are going through this and I hope she gets better. Oh also sometimes when kittens have fleas they can become very anemic and die. Check and see if the kittens have fleas, if so you can wash the kittens in Dawn dishwashing soap (not the dishwasher kind) This will kill the fleas that are on the kitty. But it will not prevent more from jumping on it. You will need to treat your house as well.

The vet will not "just kill it" unless you tell them to.You really should take it,it could be a neurological problem,or it could have been injured somehow.Where is the mother? I'm asking because two weeks is way too young for a kitten to be away from it's mother,unless she's dead or can't or won't nurse for some reason.Also,two - week - old kittens can't walk very well,they tumble and fall over a lot at that age.

Uhhh.. the vet will not "just kill it". If it can be helped, they will help it. If you love it, seek professional help for it. One-on-one lessons on newborn care can only be had in a vet's office, not online. And nobody can psychically tell what the problem is through an Internet line.

Wont, or CAN'T? Does she sit around all day? Try laying her down and moving her paws up and down, bend them, if she is in any pain when you do this then she may have hurt them. See if you can get a cast at the pet store, if not a human tensor bandage wrapped around its paw will work well.
