The best way to tell what gender a cat is, is by looking underneath the base of its tail. A male cat that has not been neutered will have two furry testicles right below the anus, and a penis right below the testicles. A neutered male cat will not have visible testicles, but there will be a noticeable space between its anus and penis.

Spayed and intact female cats alike will have a genital opening (vulva) which is often seen as a tear-drop shape located right below the anus.

Please note that checking for nipples is not an accurate way of telling a cat's gender - male cats can have nipples too! They just have no function, much the same as human males have nipples but have no use for them.

How can I differentiate between male and female cats when it comes to their identification?

One way to differentiate between male and female cats is by looking at their physical characteristics. Male cats typically have a larger size and a broader head compared to female cats. Additionally, male cats have a more pronounced genital area, with testicles that can be felt beneath the skin. Female cats have a smaller, more streamlined body shape and a less prominent genital area.
