Cats are not pack animals, they only tolerate each other in our homes because we feed them. You older cat sees the kitten as invading it territory.
An older cat may pin down a kitten to establish dominance or discipline the kitten for inappropriate behavior. This behavior is a way for the older cat to assert its authority and teach the kitten proper social boundaries.

cat scratch fever
It is unlikely for an adult to contract scratch fever. You can catch cat scratch fever by getting scratched bitten by a kitten, but this is very uncommon. Getting scratched by a kitten does not automatically mean you have scratch fever.
It's better to get a young cat, although if you are a kid, you would probaly want a kitten, they are wild, and playful. An older cat would be suitable for an older person, they are more relaxed, and calm. If you get a kitten or a young cat,they bond to you, and are more closer to you when they get older.
No, they're mild fighting or playing. The kitten may yelp or get a scratch, but it'll be fine.

The kitten may not leave the older cat alone because it is seeking attention, playfulness, or companionship. Kittens are often curious and energetic, and may want to engage with the older cat for social interaction or to establish a bond.
The don't have to hate at all! It very much depends on the cat and kitten. My older cat treated my new kitten as her own.
To address a situation where a kitten is playing too rough with an older cat, you can separate them when the play gets too rough, provide separate play areas, and redirect the kitten's energy towards appropriate toys. Additionally, you can supervise their interactions and intervene if necessary to prevent any harm to the older cat.
It is important to prevent an older cat from eating kitten food because kitten food is specially formulated to meet the high nutritional needs of growing kittens. Older cats have different nutritional requirements, and eating kitten food can lead to obesity and other health issues in the long run.
