Its curious..very curious, Bella was just playing on the sofa and rolling around on her back while swatting Ralph who was quite miffed at this. When i noticed her nether regions looked a bit 'bumpy':shock: So had a look..and it's made me question whether she is actually a she:? Because to my eye there seemed to be a bit too much 'fluff' for a female.
She's been at the vet to be vaccinated n so forth and he hasn't ever looked at her nether regions, the vet the kittens saw before they came to new homes was a vet from our practise said there was some room for doubt with Bella but denounced her a girl..and our actual vet seems to be trusting this 'diagnosis' and hasn't actually checked. I'm going to get her up the vets this week to have it fully checked out..this week..i got some pictures (so undignified for poor Bella!) allbeit they aren't the best..your thoughts?

My apologies for the 'bits' on her bum..when i took these she had just vacated the litter tray..only time i could catch her as she's been too occupied attacking the dogs tonight!


It's probably me just having iffy eyes again..but it did make me wonder, and she is kinda large for a female kitten..with a different head shape to her sister Missy...

Girl I would say but not an expert.
I would get the vet to check, I suspect loads of boys booked in for the snip have been girls and vice versa.

Luke - don't remember how old Bella is now, but I accidently snapped Chester as he was departing and he looked like this @ just 5 months. Not a lot of doubt there :roll:

A girl for sure. Guinness we thought was a girl we got him at about 20wks he was called tabatha took him to the vets for first vac and he said isnt he a big boy. Hence his name change.

But looks like a girl to me.
Chester however looks like a boy, erm .... a big boy :shock:

Compared to Oli (a boy!), I would say that Bella IS a girl! Oli has bigger lumps between his legs ;)

As you know I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to cats, but even I would have said that she's a girl

and yep, Chester is definately a boy :lol:

But, thinking about it, she could be an hemaphrodite (soz about spelling)
