My babies are 4 weeks old, the images I compared them with are advertised as being 3 week old kittens.

Any help would be greatly appreciated lol

Oh so cute !!

They look like all girls to me :D

What colour are mother and father cat ? The red gene colour is sex linked - so depending on parents colour that will tell you what colour is which sex. Except if both parents are red then both males and females could be red ;) but I'm guessing as there is a brown tortie kitten ( which will be female by the way ) not both parents are red.

My cat is a vibrant ginger and the dad I used to see her with is like a beige strawberry blonde. And it would appear that a dark cat got near her too due to her having a dark one too.

When there walking about it looks more like dots than slits, so I get confused but they never look like thw male pictures I see online.

Thanks so much for all your help, a complete house full of females :) x

I'm no expert or connoisseur, but I would think they're all girls :D Wouldn't bet anything on it, though, haha

To me they all look like girls because they have a slit. I only have one girl (which I has been confirmed) and after comparing I've noticed it's pretty easy to tell the difference. I'll post a picture of one of my boys now so you can compare.

Thanks so much, I think they are all girls too but sometimes when they are walking about it looks like a dot instead of a slit, but think they all look pretty close to bum.

Two kittens are only secured if female so would like to know now so if they are male I have time to find a loving home for them.

Thanks a picture of a male would be great, how old are your littlw beautys? X

This is why it's difficult to tell when super young, in these newest pics they all look like girls, yet I looked back at when I posted on the last pics before these and things look different now!

Looks like all girls.

Awww thanks catwoman, yeah it hard to tell when young.....I got told the best time to sex a kitten is within first week, but obviously not.

Think its hard to tell on pictures too, as it all depends on angle etc. But looks like a house full of girls lol.....now got a house 9 girls lol. 5 kittens, mummy cat, me and my two daughters, pity any guy that enters lol x
