Best Answer: Female cats typically have their first heat around the age of six months, which usually lasts for 5 to 7 days. Cat's heat cycles are light dependent and they usually have heat cycles every 9 to 13 days from January through October, though some indoor cats exposed to constant light times will cycle all year. I advise unless you want kittens to keep her in at these times.
Non-spayed female cats will go into heat or estrus seasonally in the spring and fall and may go into heat several times during the season. The period of heat lasts an average of about a week, but can vary from three to 14 days. Your cat will exhibit many behaviors during estrus that you should expect.
