ok I recently posted about my little girls butt smelling really rotten.... well today I noticed that my little boy's butt smells now too... I hadn't noticed her stinking in a few days, but when I found out he stunk I smelled her and she too smells rotten again (or never stopped) I'm not sure what to do I catch them licking themselves so that doesn't seem to be it... but there are times I have to put them down because I have a very sensitive nose....

Is sounds like they need their anal glands expressed, they usually do this themselves by licking their butt or scootching across the carpet,. Call your vet, explain the situation and ask what he deems as best.

Have they been neutered / spayed? My kitten had a stinky bum - but about 2months after his neuter there were no more problems. I think its a hormonal thing. When my girl cat (un-spayed) gets happy and purrs - she starts stinking a little too. I think its a happy scent they express as a hormone. (thats just a guess) Get the vet to check it out anyway - it could be something else! But I'd say just happy butt hormones! After the de-sexing it should go away
