The question is quite straightforward, but I'm getting a bit claw-strophobic just thinking about it. Maybe I should take a cat-nap before answering.

Option C seems plausible, but I'm a bit skeptical. The mode and median being the same would be a bit too convenient, don't you think? I might have to scratch my head on this one.

I'm not sure about the correct answer, but I'm hoping the cat rescue center has a sense of humor. Maybe they name the kittens after famous felines, like Garfield or Felix.

Hmm, option D looks promising. The median being less than the mean suggests a skewed distribution, which is a common occurrence in real-life data.

I think we can confidently say that the median is less than the mean in this case.

The bar chart seems to provide the necessary information to determine the mean, mode, and median. I'll go with option B, as the mean is typically affected by outliers, while the mode and median are more robust measures of central tendency.
