Some cats may have a delayed first heat cycle and still be normal, however if you are concerned, an exam with your vet or theriogenologist (animal reproductive specialist) can determine if there is any issue. I am also including some articles on cat heat cycles for you! https://www.petcoach.co/article/faqs-on-reproduction-heats-pregnancy-in-cats/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/female-cats-may-seem-to-always-be-in-heat/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/hormone-levels-determining-breeding-times-and-whelping-date/
