Is my cat male? (Pic included)

[NakedMum33and3rd]

I rescued two kittens from cats protection a couple of weeks ago. They are both boys (I was told).

A friend came over today and said she thinks one is a girl.

I never checked before but I have taken a picture of his bits and google is absolutely no help.

What do you think?

I'm so confused.

They are 11 weeks old.

Can you take a picture of the other one? I don't see much in the way of testicles there but then I suppose they will have been neutered already. Have you been to the vet with them yet?

I think neutered Male

Old are the kittens?

Just seen 11 weeks - they wouldn’t have been neutered at that age surely?

Male - just doesn’t have testicles visible yet. CP should have given you vouchers for neutering from 4 months so not a problem long term

Male. Genitals much further away from anus than in female cats.

I thought rescues often neutered earlier than 4 months

It's a boy
Maybe a bit too young to have visible testicles yet but looks male to me.

I’d say male if I had to guess but it’s usually easier with a known comparison as Female cats the openings are usually close together and male cats they’re further apart (female 1/2 inch or male over 1 inch)

They haven't been neutered yet. I've been trying to get a picture of the other one but he is very slippery and won't stand still for me!
I've definitely seen the other ones male bits so I know he is a boy. I'm just not sure about this one as it looks slightly different. I'm going to keep trying to get a picture. That will make for a fun evening!

100% male.

Sorry OP I've no idea what sex your cat is - but I can confirm that Battersea now neuter kittens at 8 or 9 weeks.

We will be getting them neutered when they are 4 - 6 months. That was the advice from cats protection. They are giving us vouchers to cover the cost of neutering.

We waiting 6 months to get our boys neutered - kept a close eye re spraying etc but they never did. It weirdly looks like they still have massive testicles though - been assured they do not by the vet !

Mine were done at 4 months as recommended

Erm, while all you experts are here - can I ask if my kitten is a boy or a girl?! I was told a boy, but then the man said he wasn’t sure! He’s 11 weeks (and gorgeous!)

I'd say boy too as the penile opening is quite far away from the anus

I'd say both kittens pictured are male.

You’ll need to do them ASAP, if ones female they will mate & she can get pg without having a season first.

The CP place near me, won’t let you have a cat non neutered. They neuter at 8 weeks now.
