4 week old kitten falling over & head falls over when it tries to walk. Taking to the vet after work

This is my cats first litter, things have been fine up till yesterday, when the one kitten started acting odd. It's unable to walk because it's head is falling over or it falls over. I'm taking it to the vet as soon as I can today. But I'm wondering if anyone has an ideas on what could be wrong? We are having to give it water in a bottle along with cat milk. We've gotten it to eat some canned cat food also. It's only 4 weeks old & 2 days. It's sibling kitten is doing just fine. So any info would be great!!

Are you saying that before yesterday it was walking normally? What comes to mind is cerebellar hypoplasia but this is generally present in birth in cats and would not just randomly show up at 4 weeks. The suddenly not eating as much is also quite alarming. 

Please do get kitty to the vet ASAP.

Thank you We took mommy and babies to our vet. The little baby had fluid on her brain and was going to make it. We had her put down. It was heartbreaking news to find out and to have to do. But she's not suffering now. The other kitten is healthy and fine.

Aw I am so sorry to hear this   Thank you for doing what was best for this kitty.

It what was best for her. No animal should have to suffer. I'm just glad she had a good little life while she could.
