Magwai has 4 eye teeth on top is this something to worry about. I have never seen this in a cat before
The fact that she has 4 teeth on top dosen't seem to affect her eating.

By "eye teeth," do you mean "fangs"? When kittens shed their baby teeth for their adult teeth, sometimes the new fangs will grow in next to the still intact baby fangs, which is pretty weird looking.

It sounds like his baby teeth didn't fall out when his adult teeth grew in. Long term this can cause tooth decay so ask your vet what they recommend as he may need dental work.

If her baby teeth don't fall out in the next couple weeks, a vet visit should be in order. Sometimes the kitten needs to have these pulled to prevent future problems, such as over-crowding and infection.
If the vet needs to pull these teeth, have it done when she is being spayed, it will save you some money.
She's a sweetie. Have a good one.
