A word of advice...

If you can help it, never, never, never sit out the dregs of a
hurricane in the company of a cat in heat.

We are supposed to call TED this week to make an appointment for
Tallulah's spay and Hubert's shots. (Today is a holiday in the US,
and TED is closed.) It's been raining steadily for two days, and all
day today the wind has been topping 50 mph. With impeccable timing,
Tallulah has decided that *now* is the perfect time to get started on
a new batch of kittens, and has gone into heat today.

We will be at TED's office, prepared to beg, first thing in the
morning, but until then, if any of you Cattish speakers could
translate a short statement for me to read to Tallulah, the gist of
which should be "I'm a different species and I'm female, so you're
wasting your time" I would very much appreciate it. ;-)

Sorry Krista, but this is just too funny.

Sorry, though I am a translator, I don't speak Cattish, so can't help
you with that, but the cats are sending calm-down-already purrs to
Tallulah. Is she getting aggressive towards Hubert? This happened with
Kira when she went into heat and one of her male kittens was still at
home with her. I think that's just Nature's way to make sure a mother
doesn't mate with her own son.

You have my sympathy - sorry no words of advice I have my own problems here
with a cat (Phoebe) that thinks she should mate RIGHT NOW - I am not ready
to let her mate just yet.
I have 15 kittens in the house and don't need anymore just yet!

Many vets say that spaying is best delayed until the cat is not in a heat
period.

I don't follow this, Marina. If Kira goes into heat when her male kitten
is around and available, how does that prevent her from mating with him?
