Heat in cats refers to the phase of receptivity. Heat in cats occurs for the first time between the fourth and twelfth month of life, when the house cats reach sexual maturity. After that, the four-legged animals go into heat twice a year, usually in spring and autumn. How long are cats in heat? That depends on whether the cat is mated during the heat period. Mated cats are usually only in heat for between two and four days. If they do not find a tomcat during this time, the condition can last for two weeks.
Since heat causes a certain amount of stress in cats, which can sometimes even cause them to forget to eat or use the litter box, many owners have their furry friends neutered. The one-hour visit to the veterinary practice means that both the chance of having offspring and the reproductive drive itself are eliminated. Your cat will certainly not miss the heat because it is a pure drive that is not associated with any emotions. Free from heat, your cat can enjoy its BARF in peace.
