Why is my cat in heat again so soon after her last cycle? Is it normal?
Updated On September 23rd, 2025
If cat doesn't mate how may times she's going into heat? Because my cat one month before she was in heat now she's acting like she's going into heat is that normal?

Hi and thanks for your post on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Yes this can be normal. If she doesn't mate while in heat, then she may go out of heat for and come back into heat 1-2 weeks later. She may continue to come back into heat every couple of weeks during the breeding season (January-September) until she is bred. I hope this helps!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! While dogs have heat cycles 1-2 times a year, cats typically have heat cycles more frequently, even up to every 3 weeks. It is possible that she isn't showing signs typical of a heat cycle, but cats can develop an infection of the uterus, which can be quite serious. I would recommend she have a check-up with her regular veterinarian to have a physical and go from there. Good luck!

This is suspicious for a possible ovarian cyst that could be continuing to produce hormones. If this does t resolve on its own in a few days then I would recommend that she be evaluated by a veterinarian. If you don’t plan to breed her then a spay would likely solve the problem. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Tigresa. Cats will go into heat multiple times throughout the breeding season. The cycles can vary in length, but generally last about one week. If she does not mate, her symptoms will resolve. She will likely go back into hear again soon though. Spaying her will alleviate these signs. I hope this information helps!
