The lady I got this little one from is a friend of a friend, her cat(now spayed) got loose while in heat. She said that they were all checked and that this kitten(and all the other kittens she hadn't adopted out yet) were little boys, but everything I have read makes me think this is a little girl?

So confused. I've attached some pictures, help would REALLY be appreciated!

PS. She also said they were 6 weeks old.

Thanks,

--G.E.M

My uneducated guess would also be female.  I think 6 weeks is young to be adopted out but not too young for a vet check up. 

 She is very cute.

It's a girl :). Even if you didn't have a pictures of her bits, she appears to be a tortie point, and veryvery few (only about 1 in 3000) males are tortie.

Did a vet check them? Unless they're use to seeing little kittens even vets often get it wrong.

This little one is a girl as already said, such a shame she's been taken from her mum so young. I hope the others get to stay with her for at least another month.

Girl and maybe some of the other 'boys' are girls!

Suggest this one gets spayed before she starts calling.

It's a girl you can tell because she's a tortie point

vets get kitten sexes wrong all the time, my vet once told me one of my cats was a male, when she was clearly a girl, a PREGNANT girl too
