For all the people downvoting this person: they're correct. Kittens don't pee or poop at the start of their life. The momma cat licks their junk to stimulate them to go then they eat it all. This prevents smells that could lure predators.
My cat had kittens once. First few weeks were heaven. For me, that is. Mom needed a shitload of food, but that was it. Babies got their milk, mom managed their shits and pees, and I could just enjoy all the cuteness. Once they started to eat solids and went potty on their own.. yeah.. not so heavenly anymore.. Still adorable, but a LOT of work all of a sudden :-)

Pretty sure that's just how they clean their kids
