OT-how to tell the gender of a kitten

Aug 11, 2007 14 Replies

I always have a bunch of barn kittens. My grandkids ages 6 and 5 are always asking me if they are boys or girls. I usually just turn them over and tell them which sex it is.



I overheard DGD telling DGS the other day that this kitten was a girl (while turning it over) because, "Look, the bottom of her paws are pink." :)



Who would have thought... I never know what they are thinking.


How precious!!! LOL I wonder if that works for puppies, too?

Well ... that's right isn't it?

It's girl dog i replied..on which the other girl said: I knew that! So i said: You did?? how did you know that? She said: Well.. thats not hard to see..i could tell by that beautiful long blond hair!!

The other day I was in a Ben Franklin Store ( five and dime !! )....with

6-yr old twin gks...Jake all of a sudden said...( while looking at all the toys ).. "Where do they get all this stuff????"...His sister, Sarah, answers.."China. They put the stuff on trucks...then boats and bring it here." Who would think that a 6 yr old knew a bit about world economy???? Mary in VT

Indeed! I used to love the Art Linkletter Show. Was it "Kids Say the Darndest Things"?

That is so cute- you should send it in to Readers Digest. Adorable!

classic, I remember a similar one from a mother going to a mid pregnancy scan and talking to her 3 or 4 year old son about finding out the sex and asking him how he thought they would know and the answer was "by what type of clothes it's got on". No such modesty in my own son unfortunately who will tell everyone what he and Daddy have and what Mummy and his sister don't!
