I have a question concerning a family members cat.
My cousin adopted a lovely 1 year old female last spring from a pet smart that works with local rescues to adopt out cats. Of course her paperwork says that the cat has had her shots and has been spayed.
However, this cat apparently goes into heat. According to my cousin it has happened 3 times since shes gotten the cat.
My females have never done this after being spayed and I've always been under the impression that a spayed cat does not go into heat. Is there a chance that this is some kind of fluke or perhaps her spay was not done correctly? Anyone ever deal with something like this before?
I've been urging my cousin to take the cat to a vet regardless but I'm just curious about that whole situation.
Thanks for your time.
