That's incredibly odd behavior for a 8 week old kitten. I wonder be concerned that he doesn't have a fully normal brain behaviorally. You aren't going to be able fix all those issues in a week and are going to have trouble finding a good home for him I suspect. What I would recommend is getting an appointment with a veterinary behaviorist (NOT a trainer or non-vet behaviorist) for a fully assessment to give him and you the best chance.
