How old is your "kitten" ? A cat does not have its first "heat" until the age of 6 to 8 months. Your kitten should be spay ..that is the first thing . Once the kitten is spay, she will stop going into heat. Or do you want a houseful of kittens ? I don't think you want that . They are not as easy to give away to people as you might think. If your kitten is under 5 or 6 months of age .. I doubt it is in heat. It may be in pain .. I would bring her to the Vet and have it checked out immediately. And remember, get her spayed. Good luck ! :)

A female kitten can have her first heat as early as five months. Most people aren't prepared for this. If she is mated she will have kittens herself by the time she is only seven months old. This is comparable to human child having a child when she is twelve or fourteen.
So make arrangements to have her spayed right now. A pregnancy and birth would be very hard on a cat's body when she still needs to be putting her energies into her own growth and development.

KITTEN in heat? They usually don't go into heat until they're 6 mos old or so! There's not a thing you can do at this point, except wait 'til she's over and through it, then get her SPAYED! That'll take care of the problem forever.

Well, the obvious solution is to get her fixed, but if for whatever reason you dont do that some options are~~
i make a comfy spot in the spare bedroom for my cat (i breed), close the door, put her litter box, and food/water in there, some toys. Of course I check on her often, and let her out when i'm not home. Hope this helps, sometimes i rub her belly, or her butt (ya know up by her tail) that seems to shut her up for a little while.

Get her spayed!! This is the healthiest surgery she can have as a kitten! If she does not get spayed, she is prone to ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, mammary cancer, pyrometra, etc.If a female is spayed before her first heat cycle, her risk of developing breast cancer is only 0.05%. If she is spayed after having only one heat cycle, her risk of breast cancer jumps to 8%. If she is spayed after her second heat cycle, that risk becomes 26%... that's more than 1 in 4! Spaying a cat after her third heat cycle may reduce the risk of mammary carcinoma (breast cancer) but not appreciably. Also, there are the messy cycles or stray cats in the neighborhood. One preventative surgery is much less expensive than paying for surgery and medicine for a life-threatening condition, not to mention the suffering of your pet.
Remember that one pair of unfixed cats can result in as many as 16 kittens in a year (average 4 per litter, 4 litters per spring-to-fall mating season); through their offspring, they can produce around 50-60 cats in a year's time. And most of those kittens will either end up in a shelter or on the street, or they will cause another cat to end up there. Be responsible: Spay/Neuter your cat and DON'T LITTER.

Doesn't that just drive you nuts?!?! I had a "kitten" that was roughly 1 and 1/2 years old and she started driving us all insane because she wouldn't shut up! I mean, she was yowling all the time, non stop. My other cats stayed out of the house for a week because it was driving them nuts, too! I would get her fixed as soon as possible, if it is possible. I wish you luck - I've been there before.

Keep her in and do not let her get pregnant. There are enough unwanted kitties in the world. Get her spayed when you get a chance.
Did you know that over a 7 year period a mother cat and her offspring can produce 400,000+ kittens?

Ya know, some people are just stupid. If she's FIXED, she wouldn't be in heat! (I'm responding to "As long as she's fixed, let her outside"....what a dumb**** comment! Sheesh.
Anyways, there's really nothing you can do other than to get her spayed (which I highly recommend, ESPECIALLY if she's an indoor/outdoor cat). Unless you're planning on breeding her someday....in which case, you're just going to have to deal with the meowing until she's over it.

There are pills like Nonovulin or Estrostop. The names vary, but it's actually one and the same thing - just ask a vet. It does help.
