My cat is in heat and going crazy. What should I do about spaying?

Question

Kit has gone on heat & from the research I've done it says it's best not to get her spayed in the middle of a cycle. She is going nuts though. What do I do? Pet's info: Cat | Bombay | Female | spayed | 1 year and 3 months old | 8.73 lbs

While you can spay in the middle of a heat, it is a more complicated surgery due to increased blood flow to the uterus. A cat's heat lasts 1-2 weeks, so I would make an appointment to get her spayed after another week. Unfortunately, there's not much you can do but keep her indoors to keep her from getting pregnant. Try playing with her more to give her more exercise and hopefully tire her out.
