Perma petting + gender text

[Kulta Hannu]

Hello,

I am not sure if this is a bug or something that was deliberately scripted but I am very frustrated that every time I permapet my kitties (using the June 120 day special item) the gender of the cat appears beside the cats floating text and the only way to turn it off is to turn off the text (and hence name).

I don't want gender visible, just the name.

Please advise.
