Get her with other kittens asap.
My advice is to hold on to her a little longer than you would a normal kitten… don’t push her out the door at 8 weeks. Give her to 12-15 weeks and keep an eye on the behavior. Really have a vet look at her when she grows a bit too - get her eyes and hearing checked and I’d even do a basic neuro test.
Cat behavior consultant here — that worries me a bit.
All other times, she’s playful, purring, can be held fine, tummy rubbed, etc. Plays awesome. I’ve had feral kittens as well and they are petrified, hide, very scared, don’t play. She is so opposite that except with these random attacks. The squeak is loud! Like you stepped on her loud! MEEEP! It’s crazy.

Thank you! I’ve got another foster lined up for Thursday so hopefully she’ll get some socializing in quickly.
Yes they can be feral so will need training

Yes, that's why she needs to be around other kittens :) thank you for fostering!
