My kitten is about seven-months old, and I think yesterday morning she went into heat for the first time. I'm not quite sure what has been up with her. We gave her some cat nip for the first time yesterday, so I just assumed she was being more vocal and playful because of that. But last night, she was putting her butt up in the air, and stretching out her back. Everytime you say 'Poe!' she'll do this weird trill thing and put her back up. She just seems miserable, and doesn't even know what to do with herself. We made an appointment with the vet to get her spayed on the 7th, so she won't have to be like this for long. I was just wondering what we could do to make her feel more comfortable before and after she gets spayed. Also, I'd like to know what I can expect change-wise in mood and behavior directly after she gets spayed. I don't want her to lose her playful and bouncy nature, because I've heard that after you spay a cat, they're much more mellow and lazy.
