How do you know when your FEMALE cat is in heat Please show tips?

Answer 1

Answer:Immediately preceding estrus, your female cat may become unusually affectionate, by sidling up and rubbing her hind quarters against furniture, stuffed toys, other cats, and/or her favorite human.

1. She may spend excessive time licking her genital area. Note: Lacking the other behavioral traits on this list, genital licking can be a symptom of a urinary tract disorder, which can be serious if not treated promptly.

2. The Queen (name for female cats of breeding age) will vocalize loudly. This "calling" may go on for several days, unless she mates.

3. She will assume a mating position: head down, forelegs bent, rear quarters raised to expose the perineum (this raised posture is called lordosis), with the tail raised and held to the side of the body. Her rear legs will tread rhythmically, as if walking in place.

4. Queenie may also spray vertical surfaces with a strongly scented fluid. She will accomplish this by backing up to the surface and raising her tail high. The tail may quiver, and she may perform the rhythmic treading described in step four.

5. If your female cat does not mate, she will go into oestrus as often as every two to three weeks, for several months each year, until she either mates or is spayed.

Tips:

1. Unless she is a qualified pedigreed breeder, your female cat should be spayed. It will not only cease the uncomfortable heat cycles, but prevent certain serious medical problems.

2. Your veterinarian may be able to give your female cat hormones to stop the estrus, if spaying is not immediately possible.

3. Female cats as young as four months can go into estrus.

Answer:1.) when your cat is in heat, you can tell by... if she is rolling around and she keeps sleeping.

2.) When my kitten she was in heat had discharge on my bed, your cat may bleed or have discharge, but this isn't common.

3.) Your cat doesn't act the same...

4.) The best thing to do BEFORE she gets her first heat is to spay her.

Answer 3

First, call your vet and make an appointment to have her fixed! Your vet may be able to give her hormones to stop her cycle. If not, keep her inside and away from potential suitors. She may be in heat for 3 yo 7 days, and will come into heat again in a month or so if she isn't fixed.

If you allow her to have kittens, finding good homes will be difficult, so please do your best to prevent more unwanted kitties!

Answer 4

The best thing to do is to wait until she is out of heat, and then spay her. Leaving a cat intact and allowed to call constantly puts a great deal of strain on her health. Many females will stop eating and spend all their energy on attracting a mate.

Answer 5

They will act very strange, meow alot and stick their behinds in the air. Pretty much drive you crazy if they are house cats....

Answer 6

Cats that are in heat are very uncomfortable and they let their owners know. They make strange noises and act in a loving way towards their owners. They become very clingy.

Answer 7

She will vocalize more often, stand at the door begging to be let out, and marking more in the house.
