294.0. "Kittens seek relocation." by CSSE32::FRAZIER () Mon Jul 28 1986 23:24

    I have two kittens that need a loving environment.
    
    Age is approx two months, sex is unknown as yet, one is all grey,
    the other is grey with white "socks".
    
    They are cute as all hell, but as we already have three cats, they
    must go on the block.
    
    Anyone wanting to enjoy an excellent kitty my contact me at:

    them) to $0.00 each (market driven price).

294.1sexing kittensSTUBBI::REINKETue Jul 29 1986 00:089
    Re sexing your kittens. it is fairly easy once you know what to
    look for. Turn them over and check under the tail for the anus.
    There will be a second opening either right next to the anus or
    separated by a small space. Either O<> or O  <> in the second case
    you may be able to make out two small bumps between the two openings.
    These bumps are testicles and the kitten is (of course) male. it
    is easier to tell the difference the first time if you have one
    of each for comparision but you can sex them soon after birth once
    you are familiar with how they look.
294.2Kittens in drag....VIRTUE::AITELHelllllllp Mr. Wizard!Tue Jul 29 1986 02:498
    ...might not be foolproof, though.  We got our two at the Humane
    Society in Nashua.  They gave them to us as two females - we
    brought them to the vet, who told us "well, you've got *one*
    female...."  I'd expect the folks at the NHS have seen a lot
    of kitties, and these were about 8-10 weeks old, so it seems
    it is a bit difficult to tell unless you're a real expert.

    thanks Mike -that's what I was trying to describe and you ddi it
    better. It is hard to tell unless you look closely and even experts
    can m           k by being too quick in a particular case which
    is what I suspect happened in the case of the kittens mentioned
    in the previous note.
