Yes, you should keep your kittens bottom clean. They can lick the fecal matter and get sick from it. Until they can do this themselves, you must do it for them. I am fostering four 4 week old babies now and once a day I go in with a warm washcloth and make sure they are clean. (you should not smell anything nasty...)
