Both these kittens are adorable. Can you tell if the cat is male or female? I cannot.
One of the first questions the rescue is often asked is whether the cat/kitten is male or female and many are adamant it must be one or the other. So, are male and female cats very different or does it come down to individual personality?
SHOULD I GET A MALE OR FEMALE CAT?
From Hill’s Pets: Differences Between Male and Female Cats.
The truth is that the sex of the cat really doesn’t matter when it comes to choosing the purrfect pet for you. Although there are some behavioral differences between male and female cats as they grow from kittens to adults, a cat’s genetics and environment play a bigger role in how well the two of you will bond. So take the time to meet a few cats and pick the one that you think will be your best friend. Male and female cat differences should only play a small role in choosing a cat.
People often ask us how to tell if an ant is male or female. Here’s how to do it. Pick up your ant and drop it in a glass of water. If it sinks, it’s a girl ant. However, if it floats, it’s buoyant.
We have a really special group of Goldens coming into our care. These Goldens and Golden Doodles are retired breeding dogs that a commercial breeder was looking to retire. Our volunteers will be picking up these dogs and they will be arriving soon. Our rescue is looking for adopters who can give these girls and boys a wonderful new life. They need a home with a lot of patience, compassion, and understanding. These new homes MUST have a fenced yard and another dog that will help in teaching this new family member how it is to be a loved family member. It is very rewarding to adopt one of these special dogs, but they do require a dedicated adopter(s). These retired breeders have had sad lives without the care and love that we feel all dogs are entitled to have.

To think of a zebra as a striped horse is not quite right, but not quite wrong either. Zebras are members of the horse family Equidae. Zebras are also unmistakably striped! Each zebra has a distinct pattern of stripes, as unique as a person’s fingerprints.
Grévy's zebra (Equus grevyi), also known as the imperial zebra, is the largest living wild equid and the most threatened of the three species of zebra, the other two being the plains zebra and the mountain zebra. Named after Jules Grévy, it is found in parts of Kenya and Ethiopia. Superficially, Grévy's zebras' physical features can help to identify it from the other zebra species; their overall appearance is slightly closer to that of a mule, compared to the more "equine" (horse) appearance of the plains and mountain zebras. Compared to other zebra species, Grévy's are the tallest; they have mule-like, larger ears, and have the tightest stripes of all zebras. They have distinctively erect manes, and more slender snouts.
Zebras (US: /ˈziːbrəz/, UK: /ˈzɛbrəz, ˈziː-/)[2] (subgenus Hippotigris) are African equines with distinctive black-and-white striped coats. There are three living species: Grévy's zebra (Equus grevyi), the plains zebra (E. quagga), and the mountain zebra (E. zebra). Zebras share the genus Equus with horses and asses, the three groups being the only living members of the family Equidae. Zebra stripes come in different patterns, unique to each individual. Several theories have been proposed for the function of these patterns, with most evidence supporting them as a deterrent for biting flies. Zebras inhabit eastern and southern Africa and can be found in a variety of habitats such as savannahs, grasslands, woodlands, shrublands, and mountainous areas.
The Pied Wagtail is a familiar black and white bird, commonly found all-year-round throughout the British Isles. These delightful little birds can be seen gathering in large roosts at dusk, in towns and cities.
Wandering albatross have a white head, neck and body, a wedge-shaped tail, and a large pink beak.
Juveniles have mostly dark plumage, which gradually whitens with age.
Shy and surprisingly difficult to find in mixed and conifer woodland, where it runs quickly from detected disturbance. Red-and-gold male stunning and unmistakable. Female differs from Common Pheasant in strongly barred plumage, dull pinkish (not gray) legs and feet and from Lady Amherst’s Pheasant in lighter barring, more orangeish coloration, and the lack of a bare patch of gray skin behind the eye. Native to China but introduced very locally in Britain and Hawaii; however, captive birds might escape anywhere.
