We are the very proud servants of two 8 week old kittens- we are fairly sure of their sexes (and they will of course be neutered) but we’d like to choose their names and have never sexed cats before!
Any experienced opinions will be gratefully received! - unflattering photos are hopefully attached 😁 - Thank you!

Both girls

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 28/06/2021 16:38

Pretty sure both girls

OhhForGoodnessSake · 28/06/2021 16:46

Ooh really!? We were starting to be convinced that #2 (white fluffy bottom!) was a boy!
Thanks both!

Congratulations on your lovely pair of girls!

Secret12345 · 28/06/2021 16:55

Both girls

MorriseysGladioli · 28/06/2021 16:55

I thought both girls, too.

OhhForGoodnessSake · 28/06/2021 17:04

Fab, thank you so much everyone! They are such lovely little poppets. I’ve been trawling the internet all afternoon for comparison photos but wanted to be sure! Glad I asked now- poor little love narrowly escaped a manly name haha!

Yes two girls. No space for balls there

Crappyfridays7 · 28/06/2021 17:10

Def both girls, sometimes early on they are swollen so you can’t tell but boys are v obvious. They are v cute 🥰

Dumbledoresgirl · 28/06/2021 17:14

Awww what an undignified start to their internet lives ! Wink

May we please see a photo of the front end?

Arbadacarba · 28/06/2021 17:15

Now we need to see their faces, OP!

OhhForGoodnessSake · 28/06/2021 18:17

I know, I felt terrible uploading them 🤣 poor poppets!
They are truly beautiful (not biased at all!)

Aw they're lovely. Reminds me of my 2 at that age

Fluffycloudland77 · 28/06/2021 18:24

Their both girls as far as I can see. Excellent photo 🙌. I feel I’ve violated them though 😲

They are very, very pretty little doll faces.

dementedpixie · 28/06/2021 18:24

These were mine at 8 weeks old

Cute cute cute ! But, in the context of the first pictures you showed of them, they both look pretty outraged or shocked! 🤣 Time to give them a treat to make up for it.
Chanticleer · 28/06/2021 18:46

Definitely both girls and definitely both beautiful! Congratulations OP 😁😁

Arbadacarba · 28/06/2021 18:56

Aww, too sweet!

Twokitstwokats · 28/06/2021 19:03

So what are you going to call them?

OhhForGoodnessSake · 28/06/2021 20:25

Most definitely indignant and absolutely horrified at the experience, I imagine. I did apologise profusely; I’ve never had a cat and do feel awful for subjecting them to it all 🤣

I’ve actually no idea! Husband is naming the dark tortoiseshell; he thinks Luna will suit her well.
Naming the little grey and white girl is my job. I’d had my heart set on Atticus, so that’s off the table now! I suppose the next choice might well be Scout, but she has a very delicate looking face. Any ideas?? (It took us a week after our daughter was born to name her 😳 naming things isn’t my strong point 😂)

@dementedpixie SO fluffy! What beautiful babies.

Fluffycloudland77 · 28/06/2021 20:47

I don’t think either is a tortie, they look tabby & white.

caringcarer · 28/06/2021 21:04

I have a very fluffy small cat that is grey and a white chest. She is called Molly Mea
