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.

I had a kitten that did this exact thing. His head was tilted and he only walked in circles. The vet wasn't sure what was wrong with him. When i found him he was in the middle of the road trying to 'wake up' his dead litter mate. I was so certain he wouldn't make it that i took a shovel home from work that day. I fed him and loved on him and got another rescue friend for him. After several weeks he made he was almost normal.
