Cats usually hit sexual maturity around 6 months. She may or may not go into heat at this point, each cat is different when it comes to that. My mom's cat goes into heat twice a month while my boyfriend's mom's cat goes into heat once a year. Your best bet is to go have her checked by your vet at the sixth month point and he/she will be able to tell you if she has hit sexual maturity. Then get her spayed. Not only will that prevent the annoying meowing and howling that comes with a female being in heat but it will also reduce her risk of uterine and ovarian cancer, as well as prevent unwanted visitors coming to your home (those tomcats can get pretty nasty :) )

6 months is the time when female cats 1st go into heat, and female cats are spayed not neutered. Most vets say that cats should not be spayed or neutered before 6 months.

i think that a cat can flow into warmth around the months of seven and up from what I heard. We had 3 women people at one time and that all of them went into warmth on the sametime. i comprehend that they start meowing and crying all nighttime so it sounds to me like your kitten is in warmth or it may be the two. She may well be and he or she's proably disillusioned that the different cat does not decide for something to do along with her. I mean i'm uncertain because i'm no longer a vet yet that's what i'm accumulating from having woman cats. My husband and that i've got 3 male cats now. 2 of them are fixed and we plan on getting the different one fixed. look ahead to blood spots and if she keeps meowing and desirous to flow exterior then it incredibly is indications that she's in warmth.

Check with the vet and if he feels that it would be OK to spay her now, do it! Every cat is a little different in their physical maturing, just like people. Don't wait and have her have kittens. There are already TOO MANY animals that are not properly cared for.

They can start as young as 4 months and if you are lucky as old as 8 months. Get her spayed now.
