My female cat was just recently neutered, 4 days ago. She was very quiet at the clinic as per what the vet said. But now as soon as she reaches home, when i and my family is about to sleep. She meows LOUDLY, yowls LOUDLY. And never stops. It is disrupting our sleep schedule till my mom is up to the point of getting rid of her. I wouldn’t want that to happen. But her constant meowing and yowling is very disturbing. I don’t know what she wants, i read that she might be in heat, but i have already spayed her, is there any way i can find out what to do? She is driving us crazy for the time being. She will usually meow every 30-40 secs, until we shush her, then she will start again.

Hello: My kitten (approx. 5-6 month old) was spayed yesterday, WHILE she was in her FIRST/SECOND DAY of an ACTIVE HEAT cycle and is now at home recovering. The surgeon/vet said that she did very well and had no complications. Problem is, that 12 hours after surgery she began exhibiting the same heat cycle symptoms she was doing 24 hours before the surgery. She is back to rolling on the ground and making little vocalizations, very quiet vocalizations, not anything like the extremely loud and constant yowling she was doing incessantly 24 hours prior. I am concerned, however, as I thought the spaying would eliminate ALL behaviors. Could it be that since she was just spayed yesterday there are some residual hormones floating around that will need to be "excreted" out? Does this have to do with her being spayed while in an active heat cycle? My second question is, her litter mate brother, was also neutered at the same time she was spayed. They actually had mated 12-18 hours before their surgeries. Now, since he is at home recovering, he has begun to display very aggressive behavior towards his "sister". He was hissing and stalking her so my husband and me had to separate them for fear he would bite her. I thought that neutering, made a male kitten more docile! He was VERY loving and VERY affectionate with her since birth so what the heck is going on? His behavior is beyond alarming. The vet said he did very well and had no complications so why is he acting like this? My husband and me think that the only reason could be that he is anxious around her because she is wearing that Elizabethan collar and it is huge and makes a ton of noise when she walks. Could he just be afraid of her collar? I sure hope he will not remain aggressive like this as he was not like this at all for 6 months prior. He is very affectionate with the humans in the house but when he sees her he starts hissing, and swishing his tail in anger. Please give us some advice as the last few days have been extremely challenging. Thank you!

My cat is about 1 1/2 yrs old, she was spayed as soon as she was old enough to be spayed. Lucy never exibited any signs of estris until she was a couple of months past her 1st bday. I took her to the vet that spayed her after the third time he said he didn't think that she could have any left over uterine tissue that was causing it because the estris would have happened way before it did and that she was doing it during the wrong time of the year (fall/winter) instead of spring/summer. He suggested we try a round of antibiotics first to see if she possibly has a urinary tract infection. Well one week after completing the antibiotics she is ramping up to estris again. The question I have is if the information he relayed to me is correct about the probability of uterine tissue not being Lucy's problem because it would have happened a lot sooner than it did. He also spoke about a lot of expensive tests and I think adrenal problems.

My cat was spayed a year ago and is going into heat again now. I did a blood test for her and she does have hormones in her system. The vet did not recommend an exploratory surgery due to the low chance of the remaining tissue being found since it is so small. What other forms of treatment are there besides surgery?
