She's really a "HE"???!!!???

My friends adopted a kitten (at 3 months of age, they think) about 2 months ago. Very sweet widdle baby, cuddly, and a super loud purrer! They named the sweetie "Mittens".... white toesies!

Last night, while I was over visiting, Mittens was taking a bath on my friend's lap when my friend suddenly got a startled look on her face! She said there was something "pinkish" sticking out. I looked, found a couple of other parts, and sure enough, Mittens is a "HE"!!!!!

Poor thing, I hope he's not scarred for life since we have been calling him a her for all this time!

NO PROBLEM We thought Roscoe was a he, she came to us at about 4-5 weeks (eyes were still a little blue) That is why the name. When I took her to the vet at about 8 weeks the vet looked at me very strange and said I though you where bring me a boy. OPP'S So now she is shortened to Roz.
They don’t care what they are called as long as it is backed by love.

You have just made my day.. I am laughing my butt off.. sorry just too funny.. I will guess Mittens will be Nippens now right.. Nippens due to those wittle balls will be nipped & gone when he is neutered.. Please we must see a picture..

I have known two male kitties named Mittens - it's a good gender-neutral name!

Oh wow!!!

Glad that he doesn't have a name that sounds all too female...

I had the opposite happen here. I thought my Specs was female when I got him. It wasn't until I had him vetted that the truth was revealed. He has such long hair that his parts were all covered up!
