I have a two week old kitten that is breathing with a slight rattling noise. I am not sure if its really a “rattling” sound, it might br completely normal too and I maybe just getting paranoid.
I wish I could upload a video here but unfortunately that is not an option.
Can someone let me know if this something to be alarmed about?

I don't think it is normal at all, it might be a symptom of an URI, and it could get worse at that age.
You can upload a video on YouTube and then post the link here.

I don't believe this is normal, but without hearing it no one here can say for certain.

Really the only safe is to let a vet experienced with small kittens take a check out... And if necessary, prescribe a treatment.

The problem is, many vets arent very knowleable on small kittens...

Usually its vets whom cooperate with breeders, and vets whom cooperate with shelters and rescue groups., whom are used to small kittens and knowleable on them.
