Why is my kitten twitching intensely during sleep? Is it a seizure?

If Willow twitches only when she sleeps, she is having a lot of wild dreams. Thiis is nothing to worry about. It is also a sign that she is feeling very safe, so she can sleep very deep. She is likely having great adventures in her sleep, catching mice and playing. No worries!
