Hi! I just got a new kitten! "She's" 10 weeks old today, or so I was told. I was also told she is a girl, but a friend of mine strongly disagrees. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction! Thanks!

OK, I could go either way here :lol3:. I'm kind of leaning toward boy because the opening looks round, but not round enough that I'm 100% positive.

Try this: "spread" the area gently with your fingers (kitty molesting, oh no! :tongue2:). If you can see a slit, it's a girl, if you can't, it's a boy. Also, you might be able to feel tiny testicles if it's a boy.

Looks like a boy to me too. Your kitten needs vaccines and is also of the age to be spayed/neutered, so you can ask the vet too.

Can we see a picture of the kitten's face? (not for gender purposes obviously just for fun) We love seeing kittens. 
 

When you take the kitten to the vet, they'll be able to confirm gender.

Also, can anyone tell at all if he might have long or short hair?
