This cat is a boy isn't it.... (warning, cat butt photo)

[Ghoulette]

We were explicitly told our cat was female when we bought her (amongst a multitude of other lies - the place was a disaster and those people had no business owning even one cat, never-mind breeding them).

Those look like testicles.

Is there another opening there somewhere?

Yes I think so. Our girl cat was also a boy.

It's a boy. Please report the people you got him from to RSPCA if conditions were terrible .

When mine was a kitten he could be cradled and you could see his button in a fur coat
Have you checked for a willy?

That's definitely not what a girl cat looks like.

Yep, that's a boy

Boy I feel sure.

However- we took on an adult cat when our neighbours did a midnight flit. Took her to the vet and the vet confirmed she was a girl.

About 2 years later DH commented; 'I think Pippa has a penis'.

Pippa did have a penis. Pippa is still called Pippa. In our defence Pippa's arse is supremely fluffy, but I would have thought the actual vet would have worked it out. (And us too to be fair).

This is what prompted me to have a look! I saw "her" licking herself and thought her urethra looked rather.... sticky outy!!! Then I checked and found this massive pair of what you have all confirmed are balls

Thank you for your help everyone! I have made a report to the RSPCA as it was pretty horrendous when I went to collect her. I am hoping others who got kittens from them did too - we were told they were vaccinated, chipped, we're older than they were etc. Not bloody on at all!!

This made me laugh, sorry it's a shock when you realise isn't it!!!

I did wonder if we should change his name now as he is currently Sylvie! I've been jokingly calling him Sylvester for a few weeks (and Sylvia and other names) so will probably just stick with sylvester or sylv for short!

Slyvester is a good name for a cat!

Yes, those are balls. Something similar happened to us- told kitten was a girl, couldn't really see much, then all of a sudden noticed balls. Kitten had grey stripes so had one grey and one black ball, which amused us. Violet the kitten became Alan.

Did you post this the other day? I’m sure I’ve seen those plums before?

We had a ginger girl. Took her to the vets for her 1st injection and check up. Vets first words were “a ginger female? It’s very rare to have a ginger female” … next words “you have a ginger boy…. Do you still want to keep him?”

We had a puppy from a close family friend, a midwife no less, a boy, called Oliver. She remained Oliver her whole life.

I had a cat I thought was a boy (though everyone else told me it was a girl). Named him John. Turned out he was a girl. I still called him John.

Dh had a ginger boy called Tom when i met him

He was still called Tom after he had a litter of kittens.

We collected two boy cats. Or so we thought. One turned out to be a girl. We got them from Cats Protection so you'd think they'd know . They were from a feral colony so part of a huge intake of cats...things obviously got a bit muddled.

We did change her name - she'd been called King, DS renamed her Tilt.

We found a kitten in a ditch, the vet told it was a girl, he's still called Ivy

Definitely get him neutered,you don't want him spraying round the house or wandering,I would say stop him fighting too but hasn't stopped mine.

Our boy is called star as we were told he was a she

Yep, that’s a boy and a half that is. You’ll have to castrate him before he gives the men in the family an inferiority complex.

The big dangling ballsack is the clincher for me.

We have a Bella. Still referred to as she. But a boy cat before the operation. Only found out when the vet phoned before she was "spayed".
