I have 2 kittens that are scheduled to be spayed and neutered on the 27th of October. They are 2 weeks shy of 5 months old.
Yesterday morning I saw my male cat on top of my female. He was biting her neck and looked like he was about to mate. I thought maybe it was playing, but normally she would be biting back. Anyway it happened again tonight and I'm freaking out. Can a female get pregnant before she has had her first heat?
I know she is not and hasn't been in heat before. We are calling the vet tomorrow; however I specifically remember asking the vet is it ok to wait because they are male and female kittens. He said the only way he would do it before 5 months was if the boy was spraying all over the house. My boy hasn't sprayed and the two times it happened he just laid on the floor and went to sleep. I'm just looking for some answers to make me stop worrying tonight. I can't find anything on here about kittens getting pregnant before going into heat.
Thanks and sorry for the long rant!
