Question
The pet store said we had a male.  I was rubbing his tummy and I discovered that he had two nipples.  Is he supposed to or is he a she?  Thanks

Answer
Hi Tammy

Does he have a Penis You can easily check by gently pushing down near is pelvis and it should show.
Otherwise Does He/She have a Y Shaped Pelvis if so it is a girl

If you dont no and cant seem to find out take it to a Vet or another petstore.

Good Luck
