For adult cats, the easiest way to tell a male cat from a female cat is to look at the cat's reproductive organs. There are obvious differences in the genitals of male cats and female cats.
1. Male cat
- The reproductive organs of male cats are more obvious, usually with two smaller round protrusions, which are the testicles, located on the waist below the anus.
2. Female cat
- The female cat’s reproductive system is located in the lower part of the body, near the anus. Unlike male cats, female cats do not have protruding reproductive organs, but they have two small reproductive organs, the labia.
It should be noted that it is more difficult to distinguish male from female in kittens or newborn cats because their reproductive organs are not obviously developed. If you want to know the gender of a kitten, it is best to ask a veterinarian or an experienced owner to identify it, or wait until the kitten reaches adulthood.
