He needs more litter boxes around so he doesn't forget to use one. There should always be one in his sight. He may also need to be confined to a single room while he figures it out.

You can try placing him in the litter box before and after he eats as a reminder.

He already knows.. And this room is like right near the litter box room.. Don't think we need a litter box at all anywhere except the living room. He does not need to figure it out..

It's very easy for a kitten this small to forget to use the litter box. Having a pan in each room will help greatly. So will placing him in it as a reminder.

He's not doing it on purpose.

I wouldn't say so, I saw some dried up light red substance. It wasn't like blood red, but definitely red. In his feces.

If it's just light red it might be something he ate. Does any of his food have red coloring? Is he still playing, eating, and using the litter box normally?

If it is blood, he could just need to be dewormed.

Almost like how his mother would try to pick him up.

Do not allow him to bite your hand or fingers. I had a kitten who wanted to suckle on my fingers, but her teeth hurt, so I had to stop it.

You might want to give him a cloth with a corner soaked in milk that he can suckle on. He really wants to suckle for comfort.

Hm, I'll buy goat milk today, since kitten replacer is hard to get here.

There's one more huge problem, he gets poop on his backside, and on the start of the tail.
Today I sat near him when he went to poop, and it looked normal, he digs deep, but then he squats a bit low, that gets litter on his backside, but I still don't understand how he got POOP on his backside? He's still passing stool like the one in the picture, so it can't be Diarrhea, um? I've given him a backside only bath. but just after he went potty again and it was a disaster, he got litter every, but that doesn't matter, why is he getting poop on his backside and tail?
He goes normally...
doesn't play in the litterbox.
I can film a video of him going, if you guys can't get any idea why he's doing this..
