Gorge is a very handsome boy! As I'm sure you've noticed, females display typical behaviors when they are in heat. These behaviors include being more physically affectionate, being more vocal, and lifting up on her back legs and moving her tail to one side when you rub her back by her tail. When you see those signs, put Gorge and her into a room together. She will allow him to mate with her if she is truly in heat. Please keep in mind, however, that mating her will not stop her from showing mating behaviors. Those will only pass if the mating results in a pregnancy, and even after she has kittens, she will go into heat again showing the same behaviors. The only way to truly stop her from having these behaviors is to have her spayed.
