I've never seen a cat in heat before. My cats all came to me already spayed or neutered. The kittens are probably in the 6 week old range? I've had them for almost 2 weeks and mama was outside full time before that. When I took them all to the vet about 10 days ago I forgot to ask if she might already be pregnant again. The vet gave her a thorough exam and didn't say anything about her possibly being pregnant. Now I'm wondering if she is in heat.
She sometimes is desperate to get out of the room and in fact clawed me up pretty good the other night at 4 am when I went in to use the bathroom they are sleeping in and she tried to door dash. Last night she woke me up at 2 am meowing for an unknown reason. She did quiet down when I gave her another can of food, even though she had dry food left in her bowl. This is unusual behavior for her, she was surprisingly perfectly behaved until a few days ago.
So could she be in heat? Is that why she is acting batty? She is scratching one minute and purring and rubbing on me the next.
