Is my 7-day-old kitten's bent paw and strange movement normal?

Question

My cat had 4 kittens seven days ago. One of them has been moving in a kind of not normal way like all kittens straight their hands and try to reach their mother while that kitten has his arm straight but his hand bent backwards and the other arm all straight. So I don’t know if there’s something I should worry about.. I hope it’s normal. Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Female | 3 years and 3 months old | 2.5 lbs

This doesn't sound normal, and without seeing the kitten in person, I can't say if it's normal or not. I'd have this kitten checked out by a vet. Be sure to bring Icy and the other kittens to the appointment as well, as this kitten cannot be separated from his mother.
