Female cat in heat HELP

[dustysky]

OMG, my female cat is in heat
PLEASE help me, how do I stop her from howling all night??
I know I need to get her fixed to stop her perminantly but what do I do TONIGHT??

I have found that you just have to wait it out.

Can't do anything...she is in heat and will continue to go into for many months once it starts.
Earplugs or the Bose earmuffs might work...

These heat cycles may start as early as the fourth or fifth month of a kitten's life, and will continue until she is either bred or spayed. Heat cycles in cats last from several days to two weeks or longer, and repeat every two to three weeks. You can see then, how a female cat may almost always seem to be in heat.
No one can say with any accuracy that heat cycles are painful to cats; however from the calling (loud yowling) and other symptoms they exhibit, it would appear that they are very uncomfortable.

I shuld have also mentioned we have a male but he is already fixed and even though he is trying from what I have read he is NOT helping her out.
Oh the joy of being a pet owner.

Might I recommend the Cone of Silence.

No suggestions, but I hope it passes soon.

Oh, dude, you know the cone of silence! Awesome!

(You're thinking of the one from Get Smart, right?)

You go to a hotel and let the cat have the house to herself!

Get her fixed as soon as you can...my cat was constantly in heat, it seemed like 1 week on 2 weeks off.

Plus the vet charged more since she had been in heat before we got her spayed.

And the worst...when she was in heat she peed everywhere! My furniture, my rugs, my clothes...everywhere!
