One of the new kittens at my son's house is a demon.  I mean it really is.
If it bumps up against another kitten it will try and rip that kitten to
pieces.  If one runs over it when trying to find a feeding station, woe be
to that kitty.

They are trying to isolate it and let it feed by itself but that is a job
and to keep it warm and all just being such a new kitty.  Anyone ever had
this or have any suggestions?  It isn't playing, it goes for the jugular
every time.

Just a thought: might it be blind or deaf and not obvious about it? It
sounds like the kitten is having an overactive startle response. I
know
our d-thing Bo (RB) who was blind & deaf before he was PTS, could
get very aggressive if he was startled.

That was my thought and what Lee said when I called her.  They are too young
yet, but a trip to vet may be in the works for him to determine what he
thinks.  It is going to have to be separated as it is so aggressive.

Does it have any teeth yet?  If not, I'd just let it be for a while.

Don't know about teeth but it has tiny claws.
