A friend of mine has a litter of kittens about 4 weeks old. Unfortunately everyone we know can't remember how to sex kittens :?

Can anyone help please?

U have to wait till they are a little older! Or look in the obvious place to see if u can make head or tail ;-)

At what age then would u be able to tell?

I can tell the differnce between the head and the tail :roll:

It can be difficult to tell the sex of very young kittens ....unless you are an expert of course.

Like Azz said, it's best to wait until they are a little older when 'things' will become more obvious! :lol:

Are you thinking of having one of the kitties?

Ok, this may get embarrassing. :-D But I can sex both very young kittens and Guinea Pigs. :shock:

Ok First take kitten and lay him on his back
Then look at his bottom
If it is a girl then the vaginal area will be very close to the anus
If its a boy, the 2 holes :lol: will be further apart

Hope that helps. It takes experience though, so if you don't get it then don't feel bad. :D
