What is the performance of cat estrus at the peak of estrus in spring

For the owner, when the female cat is in estrus, it's really one head and two big heads. Many cats often cry in the middle of the night during the estrous period, which is really very troublesome. So how to judge whether a cat is in estrus? What are the performance characteristics of cat estrus?

The female cat entered her estrus when she was six months old. Generally speaking, female cats do not have a fixed estrous cycle (that is, cats can have multiple estrus in a year, while dogs usually only have two estrus in a year). Therefore, female cats can be fertilized at any time of the year. However, spring is often considered as the 'high incidence period of cubing'. The specific symptoms of estrus are as follows

1. Cats look more clingy. Even if your cat likes to stick to people at ordinary times, she will stick to people more than ever during estrus. She will constantly rub you, but also like to chase the neighbor's other small animals. If you have a male cat with reproductive function in your family, the female cat in estrus will try to get close to him.

2. She's always in a mating position. That's to say, head down and hips up. Her hind legs move back and forth, and her tail is set to one side to expose her pudenda.

3. She would make strange calls from time to time to attract the attention of the opposite sex.

4. She might pee around your house. Not all estrous female cats are like this, only some will have this symptom. You may get angry, but you know it's just instinct. She's doing this to define her field and attract males.

5. She may lose her appetite. This also varies from cat to cat. If your cat has a bad appetite, make sure she has at least something to eat and is not hungry. If she usually eats dry food, try to give her some canned food, because she may have changed her taste. But don't worry too much about the fact that she doesn't eat. Maybe she ate some when she was wandering outside. When you really don't eat anything, ask your veterinarian for help.

6. She will keep licking the pudenda, may be due to swelling uncomfortable, there may be bleeding phenomenon.

7. There are also a series of changes in the female genitalia. The changes of vulva can be divided into four stages: in the first stage, the pubic hair is just separated, the external genitalia is swollen, and the labia is slightly split; in the second stage, the pubic hair is completely separated, the swelling of the vulva is obvious, and the labia is obviously two big petals with a small amount of white mucus; in the third stage, the vulva is strongly swollen and everted, showing obvious four petals with a large amount of mucus; in the third stage, the vulva is strongly swollen and everted, showing obvious four petals with; In the fourth stage, the swelling of vulva gradually subsided, the hair atrophied and became dry, and the pubic hair gradually became brush like. It is usually the easiest to mate in the second and third stages.

After successful mating, if the female cat is pregnant, she needs more nutrition in her body. Therefore, we should pay attention to balanced nutrition in the food for the female cat, and make some meat dishes for the cat at intervals, or match some pet instant calcium with the food for the cat to supplement the trace elements and vitamins that the cat lacks.
