The problem with cats is that once estrus starts, it will be an ongoing process until the cat is either spayed or gets pregnant. Their heat cycles can occur as frequently as every week or two. Cats are "induced ovulators", which means that their bodies attempt to stay in estrus until they mate.
Some cats stay in heat almost continuously.
You can spay her during heat, but it is slightly more difficult due to the engorgement of the tissues and larger blood vessels.
Spaying in heat does not carry a significant risk to the cat but, since extra surgery time is frequently required, an extra charge may be incurred.

Female kittens can be spayed when in heat and some clinics charge extra when they are, but the peace an quiet that you will get is "TOTALLY" worth the price of the spaying.
The Clinic that I went to offers the traditional surgery plus a laser surgery (costs more) that heals much faster and with virtually no complications at all. I was very satisfied with the results.
After the surgery you will have a completely different kitten, more lovable and calmer.

She can be fixed while in heat. It's normal for her to be going into heat frequently like that. Make an appointment and take her to be spayed. You both will be much happier! ♥

Hi Miss, They sure scream their heads off when in heat. They have no pride at all,they just want to make love.. I think you can have her fixed while in heat. Call your vet and make sure and if he will, set up a appointment and have it done A.S.A.P. A Friend...

its prefectly normal for an unspayed cat to go on heat every few weeks throughout the breeding season..
and yes the vets would spay her if you took her along and asked..
females that aren't spayed will not only call they will spra all over your house .. leaving their scent for the toms and she will get very upset/DISTRESSED if not allowed to mate..If left to call constantly she can develope cystic ovaries..
I would make the appointment at the vets sooner rather than later.

yes you can still get your cat fixed when she is in heat! it should ve been done a long time ago..already...veterinarians dont like to do it when they are in heat but they can.... it may cost a bit more money.. but you are saving your cat a bunch of problems in the future if you get her fixed...... where i live it is the law!! and i think part of responsible pet ownership!!!!

She needs to be spayed. Female cats will go into heat more often as they get older but if she has never been allowed to have even one litter, she could die. Our vet told us their uterus' can collapse.

Oh sure! each and all of the time lol, it makes me leap up with fright and exhibit sense sorry approximately (cats call) and then I recognize it rather is merely between the cats rubber balls that i'm stepping on. it is so humorous while that happens! lol

Get her fixed! Yes they can do it while she's in heat but it doesn't take two weeks to do! You are neglecting your pet.
