Determining the sex of a kitten is crucial for various reasons, including medical care, spaying or neutering, and selecting an appropriate name. Understanding the physical differences between male and female kittens can help you accurately identify their sex.
One of the primary ways to distinguish between male and female kittens is by examining their genital area. Male kittens have a more prominent and rounder genital opening, located at the base of their belly, while female kittens have a smaller, slit-like opening located closer to their tail.
