How long does a cat stay in 'heat'.???

She's only 8 months old and this is her first full 'heat'... Today is her first day... and I tell ya, it isn't pleasant! lol
Answers:
Get her spayed.

Cats are polyestrus, which means females can have many heat periods in each breeding season. Each heat period lasts between 5-14 days. If she is mated, the cat will usually go out of heat within 24 hours.

If the cat is not mated and does not become pregnant, she can go into heat repeatedly every 2-3 weeks. This means that if your cat goes into heat - you can't simply keep her locked up at home, waiting for it to go away. Unless you spay the cat, she will keep going into heat practically every month.
You need to get her spayed. If you don't, she will be tempermental and cause problems for you. And you don't want to produce any unwanted kittens, do you?
better try to spay her as soon as you can
your cat will stay in heat up to a week.

please be patient with her and when she comes out of heat try to get a appointment to get her spayed

I went through this with my cats they are now all spayed even if I thought they would have beautiful kittens.
Listen to Eri she is 100% correct!!!!. That howling she does will continue if she is not spayed.Also she will keep looking for a way to escape and "find a boyfriend".Cats can be spayed when they are in heat so i would advise calling a vet A.S.A. P. Good Luck.
About 4 to 7 days
