How do cats on heat act?

[QueenStromba]

I posted another thread earlier about my cat wanting to go out all of a sudden after a happy year of being an indoor cat. Battersea looked for a scar and say they found one (I'm sure that they looked because she was missing a big chunk of fur on her side) but I've heard that bits can remain. Maybe she was happy to stay indoors this time last year because she was very thin or because the cat downstairs (who I think is male) hadn't moved in yet but she's not actually completely neutered?

They Twerk & miaow the house down, it's a different call though. One you won't have heard before.

One of ours was neutered but still attracted male cats.

I'm pretty sure I've heard all of the various miaows and howls she's come out with today before and I've not noticed any twerking. Thanks :)

Blimey, if you have to ask then no! not in heat. When our adopted cat was in heat she was twerking to a point that was ridiculous. She was even trying to get the dog to hump her. Had dinner guests and she was even playing up to them.
Don't even mention the wailing! She was straight down to the vets on the Monday.

It was unmistakeable.

So she really did just wake up this morning and decide she was an outside cat then?

Maybe.

She might decide tomorrow that outdoors is rubbish.

That sounds like a cat alright.

I'll make sure to take her out next time it rains - that should change her mind on the whole outside thing.

Agree with other posters. The noise they make is quite unlike anything else and absolutely unmistakeable. Plus they will offer their rear ends to absolutely anyone and anything - they are utter tarts!

Oh the sound of a cat on heat.

Non stop yowelling, day and night.

Putting their tail to one side and backing up to anything/anyone male then doing a sort of marching on the spot while looking over her shoulder beseechingly at said male (who was quite disturbed).

Then crying at the windows and doors.

Then back to the yowelling.

And did I tell you this is 24 hours a day? All day?

And the vet had the audacity to ask if we were sure she had been on heat.
