11. Chan is used for Babies and girls

Kun for boy friends (normally like a friend in high school.) Kun is used for males and never used for females. Chan is used exclusively for females and babies (despite their sex.) A kitten could be called "Chan" but an adult cat is never called Kun. Simply Neko. (Cat.) or even San which is semi formal.
