Update: Vet confirmed she is a girl, we now call her Callie. :)

I like the name Jackie!

Here is a slightly better picture, but I think you are right!

I have had my kitten named Jack for a few weeks now, he is seven weeks old and doing well. However, it has been called into question if Jack is actually a boy. Is anyone able to tell? Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply. Otherwise he is doing pretty good. He has a good appetite, and he gained over an ounce in 24 hours. He now weighs 11.4 ounces. He seems to still be slightly constipated, because he often strains when having a bowl movement. However, it has greatly improved since my...

I was given a three week old kitten to care for, by a young girl who found the abandoned kitten. He was taken to the vet by that girl three days ago, and she said he was three weeks old. He weighs about 8.5 oz and is very skinny. When I got him yesterday evening, he was cold and not eating well...
