Cats are popular pets, and telling male and female cats apart is a common question for new pet owners. Here’s a concise and funny way to do it.
How to Simply Tell Male and Female Cats Apart?
Below a female cat’s anus is a genital opening. These two openings are relatively close, almost in a straight line, with the genital opening slightly droplet – shaped and not perfectly round. Some describe the female cat’s appearance as an “upside – down exclamation mark”.
For male cats, the anus and genital opening are farther apart, with a small space in between for the testicles when the cat matures. The genital opening of a male cat is more circular. The overall look is likened to a “colon”. Even in young male cats, though testicles may not be visible, the area’s fur pattern can hint at the gender.
This method is simple and funny. Observing the distance and shape of these openings can help you quickly tell male and female cats apart.
