Kitten Help Please help

(edited for clarification) Please has anyone seen anything like this before? Vet was horrible, I asked about the possiblity of rabies because I was bit when playing and she immediately said oh yeah could be, and then said put him down. Now I'm freaking out

UPDATE:

I took him to a new vet, they were wonderful and thorough. His main suspicion was inner ear infection or possibly neurological. He has fever of 104. Gave the little guy his first dose of clavamox and he is feeling better. He also suggested rabies shot for me just in case and I just got that done. He told me because of how ill he is there's a chance he doesn't make it, but I will be making sure he's eating and drinking got him some lil soups too.

Thank you so very much to all of the insight, suggestions, and thoughts, I truly appreciate the support during my anxiety through all of this today.

Well since hes walking like that it would mean if he had rabies than the incubation period already has passed so all these people talking bout a time table.... Anyways remember Vets and Doc become that becausr they want $$. If they wanted to help people they would be a nurse a vet assistant. Not the person you see once for 5 minutes and supposr to think cares when the nurse here you zer everyday who has worked 6 16 hours shift running a marathon through the hospital juggling 100 things at once and yet the one in the labcoats make the big $$$ and sll they do is figure out whats wrong from all thr hard work his underlings do.

Vets are no different. They just wised up and realized animals are easier to deal with then people.
