4 month old kitten.

[Holidaystress11]

Sold to us as female.... however I'm pretty sure it's a boy... I've googled and seen the images to try an determine. I'm pretty sure there's 2,little balls there. It doesn't matter but might warrant a name change!! How can I be sure please?

Take them to be neutered, 4 months is old enough. The vet will figure it out

Yes we are waiting for this. 2nd jabs to be done first!

Can you post a picture of the bum area and we can see if we agree?

My 2 cats were sold to us as girls and are both boys. Had to change their names too. It was the vet that told us they were boys

Hasn't cleaned his bum properly! Do apologise. @dementedpixie

I would think it was a girl 🤦🏻‍♀️

My db has a boy cat, 4 months old. He’s definitely a boy as his plums nearly had my eyes out. However, I’ve had a bit cat and when they neutered him one of his balls was stuck inside.
Could we have a look at his face? My db cat has a ‘boy’ face that’s very obvious.

Oh! Haha OK. Just made me think because vet said neuter not spay and I didn't think much about it. But thought I could a pair of tiny balls.... but maybe not! 🤣

@LadyGaGasPokerFace here he/she is 🤣

Oh it didn't load...

How gorgeous. He/ she looks a bit boyish in the face to me but I may be being swayed by the hint of ginger.

Agree that you can often tell from the face. I would say definitely a girl! And a very beautiful girl cat too!!

I think its a boy due to the distance between anus and urethra

So going by comments we are still 50/50 🤣

She's/hes so quiet. Shes/hes a Scottish fold. Only let's out one meow when hungry. Flops down to nap basically anywhere. Quite lazy. Only plays when you initiate it. Bit apparently that's normal for a Scottish fold (straight)

Wow it really is difficult to tell now. Can’t wait to find out, please let us know!

Very cute 😻
Its face is quite rounded and I’d say it’s a girl. My db kitten can have its belly rubbed and you can see it’s plums so quite obvious. Maybe you need to get kitty at a better angle to have a good look.

Where the uretha is its very fluffy and I did have a cop and I think it feels like 2 small balls. But I've never had a cat before so I don't really know what I'm talking about 🤣

Not sure if its possible to tell from this angle? Not a great pic. Had to get 6 year old to take the photo while I held them.

Too difficult with these photos sorry but the vet can tell you.

If it helps both male and female kittens have something that looks a lot like balls. You want to focus on the shape of the actual penis/vulva. If it’s a line shape, it’s a girl. If it’s a round shape, it’s a boy.

Ahhhh OK! Thank you. I can't get them to stay still long enough to check. Maybe tomorrow when they are kipping!
Thanks all!

Kitten Lady has a video about it, with cute kittens as a bonus

@Amethys how's this...

Too fluffy I think!

That's a male kitten. He's lovely

As a PP said you can tell it's male because of the gap between the bum and the urethra.

Well I’m invested now.

As for getting them neutered, my girl is 5 months but they won’t do her as she’s too small at 1.9 kilos.
