| My cat is in heat AGAIN!?! this is like every 3 weeks, I don't have the money yet to have her fixed and believe me as soon as I can afford it she's going, she is driving me absolutely crazy!! Why oh why is it so often? I was under the impression it happens every six months. I've always had my cats spayed as early as possible to avoid going through this but haven't been able to this time because of our circumstances. Don't worry, she is not allowed outside, she is strickly an indoor cat. | |

| Mine is in the same boat too.... I feel your pain. I took this from about.com - Quote :
Cats are referred to as "polyestrus," which means that they will go into heat cycles periodically during their fertile years. These heat cycles may start as early as the fourth or fifth month of a kitten's life, and will continue until she is either bred or spayed. Heat cycles in cats last from several days to two weeks or longer, and repeat every two to three weeks. You can see then, how a female cat may almost always seem to be in heat. | |

Thats dogs.. Through my bitch comes in heat every 4 months. Cats will basically always seem to be in heat unless they get knocked up, and can come back in heat while still nursing kittens. Its why I only will get male cats Pick up a water bottle and spray her when she gets really annoying, wont help at all but it will make you feel better. :lol: | |

She was still nursing and found out she was pregnant when caught. | |
