That looks like a kitty in heat, yes.
It's preferable to do the spay when not in heat, but it's not always possible to predict when making an appointment whether a cat will be in heat at some specific time in the future. If she's back in heat when the spay appointment comes, in my opinion it's better to go ahead and spay, rather than to wait too long and risk pregnancy or infection.Yes. Be sure you spay her first when the heat is done with - its more difficult and more dangerous to spay when in heat.
The behaviors will vary in intensity while she is in heat, this is normal. It can be milder on the first day and typically gets more intense on the 2nd - 3rd day. Most cats are in heat for about a week at a time, then a short break, then they come back in heat again.She seem to be in heat only at night because now that it's morning she isn't crying as much or lying down in heat position
Yes it's possible, though with a strictly indoor Cat that's litterbox trained it's most commonly a sign of a medical issue like a urinary tract infection. But yes, a female in heat will sometimes spray.Do indoor cat spray too? She seem like very trained house cat. She only less in the litter box
My experience is that it's pretty common for females in heat to pee on certain types of things. Some do it and some don't. In a spayed cat you would worry about a medical issue but for a whole female it's pretty much par for the course... just one of the many reasons to spay!Yes it's possible, though with a strictly indoor Cat that's litterbox trained it's most commonly a sign of a medical issue like a urinary tract infection.

They can, especielly when in heat. Some females are peeing quite a lot when in heat. So its not much to do with being "house broken", they just do it, even if they are otherwise well behaving. So its another reason to spay them, if you arent a breeder.Do indoor cat spray too? She seem like very trained house cat. She only less in the litter box
I guess I've been lucky then, I've had never had a female pee outside a litterbox just because of being in heat. I suppose I should count my blessings on that.My experience is that it's pretty common for females in heat to pee on certain types of things. Some do it and some don't.
