Are you feeling anxious about why suddenly your innocent female cat is doing unusual activities? Why is she showing agitation, losing her appetite, and demanding extra attention?

It is all due to the onset of the heat cycle. Same as all-female mammals, the queen cat also experiences cyclic changes in sexual receptivity. In this, she is ready to mate and fertilize. This is also very difficult for her. But here we will help you to know, how you can give her comfort. Remember, pets also need your love and affection in their tough time.

Power of Nutrition

Good nutrition is the backbone of any life. During the estrus cycle, the queen cat experiences hormonal imbalances. That triggers anorexia. The absence of appetite and adequate nutrient intake can make matters worse.

So presenting an optimal nutritional supplement is an incredible way to express your love for her. An awesome idea that can help you enhance her appetite is replacing her old eating bowl with a colorful new one.

Present Sanctuary

Your cat is yowling, showing unusual behavior, and vocalizing loudly in this phase. She is facing and also giving you anxiety. She is not feeling so much good by playing indoors. She is rubbing her feet unnecessarily on your appealing and comfy room rugs. She is not using her pot for pee and damaging your aesthetic wooden floor.

You don’t need to be panic and shout at her for doing all this. Show some extra courtesy for her. She is an individual with all emotions and needs. Remove your expensive and worthy stuff for a short duration to prevent any type of damage.

Believe us, When she is out of this cycle, she will be back to normal.

Relax Her

Do you know every cat feels relaxed in an entirely different way? Like, for some cats extra petting, becoming social, and getting more affection are peaceful. While for others, hiding and living alone are more cheerful.

As every cat is a different individual. So you have to examine what calming suits your unique cat best. Allow her to feel secure in her environment. You can use various cat calming diffusers easily.

Spaying: A New Tool

A safe bet for your queen cat to don’t experience an irritable heat cycle. It is a surgical operation for the removal of ovaries and the uterus. It’s not just beneficial to avoid the heat cycle but also very advantageous in preventing various medical issues.

Wrapping up:-

Same as mammals, queen cats experience sexual growth with various behavior changes. It’s not a disease so never try to search for a “cure”. By offering a good diet, extra affection, you can chill her. Neutering is also as good as it gets to comfort the queen cat.
