Hi Morgyn, thank you for posting! It's difficult to say what's going on without more information or seeing your kitten in person, so it's good that you're contacting a veterinarian. I'll send an email to our vet and ask if she's able to help you out. All the best.

Hi @morgyn taggart,

Unfortunately, this is a strange mix of signs that don't point to anything in particular - a hands-on exam will be needed to see if there's anything wrong with your kitten. It's impossible to tell over the internet whether the crying in her sleep is normal or not, and whether the twitching is anything concerning. 

If you can, take a video of her doing the behavior to your appointment - it will help the vets diagnose the problem. You could also take a fecal sample to help your vet determine how abnormal it is.

Let us know how you get on!
