hello we recently took in a cat that was left behind after it’s owners moved abroad, a neighbour would hear it crying and meowing. He/she isn’t chipped either.

Now I’m unsure as to if it’s male or female so hoping for some help please.

Thankyou I did think so, just queried it as the stomach was pretty big too so worried about pregnancy and the vulva being swollen etc. We have a vet appointment tomorrow for a full check up :)

He's probably still quite well fed if his family have only just left, which could explain the large belly. Depending where you are he might even have been neutered. My boys still have their "bits" because in Japan the vets neuter by removing the tissue from inside the scrotum but leave the sac. In other places it's common to castrate and remove the sacs as well.

Thank you for taking him in. Poor guy, it's heart breaking when people just take off and leave their pets behind. A couple of my cats were dumped by their previous owners.

Hope everything goes well at the vets. Please keep us updated.

Yes, it is heartbreaking when people leave kitties behind, as if they were disposable.
People like that should never have pets to begin with! Bless you for taking this baby in and caring for him. :)
Yes, please keep us posted. :)

I think he's neutered. If you're up for it, give the sac a poke---if there are testicles in there they'll feel like gummy marbles, if not it will just be fur. Or you can let the vet do the groping :D.
