Boys look like a colon :
Girls look like an upside down exclamation mark ! (turn computer screen upside down :rofl:)
It is easiest to sex them immediately after birth or the first couple of days. After that it all gets a bit confusing for a few weeks.

OR..............

Give it a few months and see how many pairs of shoes it owns   :evillaugh: ;)

Eyes can stay blue up to about 3 months.  Mosi still had blue eyes when I first saw him at about 11 weeks but they had changed colour when I collected him at 14 weeks.

Hi,

This should help  ;D

http://www.vetinfo.com/csexcat.html


I found this on the web "Eyes will stay blue until they are about 6-7 weeks old, but true eye color won't settle in until the kitten's about 3 months old".

Cheers

As some of you are aware my friend is having her kitten in a few weeks but she is in a bit of a pickle lol

She isn't sure what sex her future kitten is and how exactly do you tell?  I told her "check if he's got big balls under where he poos" :rofl:  but if you good people coud give her more info it would be great.

Also his/hers eyes are changing colour,what age do their eyes change as this would approx give her an idea of how old he is.

Thanks in advance :)
Love me,love my animals.
