He's lovely, £80 is a good price for a kitten we paid £200 for our tabby( few kittens around at the time and his mum is a Bengal) and our ginge was £50.

The one on the right is definitely a tabby.

Are gingers worth more than any other cat? Mine was £25 and he's got a great temperament.

My tabby/white was free and she's scared of her own shadow...

Well i have had this kitten for 4 weeks and he has been for its jags. Now first visit to vet we were toldnirs a girl but we did not beleive what the vet was telling us. The second visit ti vet i made appointment with there cat vet and he had a look at the little one and at 13 weeks can still nkt tell me the sex of the kitten.

So it looks like i might have a hermaphrodite cat but can not tell til its neutered at 6 months unless something appears or 2 appear lol

It isn't usually difficult to Sex a cat.

If the 'holes' are very close together = female.

If there is a gap (to allow room for testicle!) it is a boy.

If there is a gap but no testicles then it may just mean the testicles aren't going to descend (which makes castration a much much bigger op unfortunately) or you do indeed have an hermaphrodite, though this is rare (I have seen it mainly in dogs but obviously a torti 'male' could be more likely!)

Let us know the outcome! Hope kitty is well otherwise. We need more pics smile

Thats the problem. The distance is not close enough for a girl but its not far enough away to say its aboy. But the shap is a dot and not a slit. The tentacles should of appeared by now. The vet reckons they might gtow inside the poor wee kitten and if no testacles appear neutering might be exploratory as the will have to try find the genitals.

^ Yes, sorry, that is what I meant by not descended, not a fun op for all concerned (kitty and vet) but would need doing.

Let's hope that isn't the case!!

Your cat has tentacles! Have you mistakenly bought an Octopus?
