Kit the Androgynous Cat

[Fourever Charmed]

I think this is the right place to put continuity errors, if not, apologies.

Anyway, here's one of the Prue Era continuity errors that's always irked me. I'd like to smack the person who made it:

"Something Wicca This Way Comes" in season one:

[Scene: Serena Fredrick's apartment. She puts down a bowl of food for her cat. (Later known as Kit.)]

Serena Fredrick: Come on, baby. Good girl.

"Dream Sorcerer" in season one:

Phoebe: Ever our poor cat’s in hell. Go away horny tom cats!

"The Painted World" in season two:

Phoebe: Looking for this? (She holds up Kit's collar.) Freeze them. (Piper freezes Malcolm and Jane.) Where's Kit?

Piper: There she is, there she is!

Prue: Okay. (Prue picks up Kit.) I can't believe we almost forgot her.

"Pre-Witched" in season three:

Phoebe: You know, I don’t think I’m ever gonna be able to look at Kit quite in the same way. Or get undressed in front of him for that matter.

And of coursse in "Cat House" Kit is back to being not only a female, but a familiar-turned-woman.

Were the sisters so preoccupied with Shadow that they got momentary amnesia making them forget that Kit was a girl?

It just seems so obvious to me. Kit has always been a girl. It's not like one of those things that was only mentioned briefly, once, a long while back. How in the world could they let that slip by?

Thanks for this truly amazing research. How many times have I watched Pre-witched and never picked up on the contradiction? Then again, maybe Phoebe was embarrassed to change in front of girls, too! Oh, wait: how can that be? Wasn't Phoebe Ms. Exhibitionist? Maybe she was secretly hoping that Kit had been a tom cat. That would explain a lot and eliminate our contradiction.
