How to Handle a Queen Cat in Heat
Spaying is by far the most effective way to stop a queen's heats; do it before she is in season, since operating during heat risks heavy bleeding. The surgery removes the ovaries and uterus under general anaesthetic, takes 60–90 minutes, and needs IV fluids plus daily wound care afterward.
How long after giving birth does a queen go into heat?

How Long Does a Cat’s Heat Yowling Last?
A queen's heat yowling lasts about 3-7 days and repeats every 2-4 weeks. She yowls day and night (worse at night), rubs on you, and may try to escape and mate with stray cats. Spay if not breeding, secure doors/windows, and wait until she's a year old before any mating.

My Cat Is in Frequent Heat, Yowling Constantly; Can’t Breed or Spay During the Pandemic. What Should I Do?

Spring Shedding and Heat Management in Cats
Spring brings shedding and heat cycles. Control loose fur with pet shampoo, regular brushing, low-salt beauty-coat food, and a calm mood; keep skin healthy with sun and exercise. For heat, a queen in season eats less and calls for toms, so feed well, confine her, and strictly prevent escape, especially before six months.
