My cat was spayed a week ago and today the wound looks a bit strange
A female cat's spay incision usually heals in 7-10 days. Without inflammation or pus, disinfect with iodine and observe; with redness, pus, or discharge, seek veterinary debridement and re-suturing.
My cat’s belly is very large but appetite and spirits are normal; stools are a bit loose and hind legs feel weak
A large belly may be pregnancy, ascites, or an abdominal tumor. Gradual enlargement in a female cat suggests pregnancy, while rapid swelling suggests ascites such as FIP. An imaging exam at the vet is recommended.

My cat stopped using the litter box and is aloof after heat. Why?
Post-heat behavior shifts as hormones stabilize, so less clinginess; strong territory marking (urine) may become a habit needing retraining. Long heat risks reproductive disease; see a vet if other signs.
In what season do lovebirds breed?
In the wild they breed Feb-Mar and Apr-Oct. In captivity they can breed year-round, but avoid summer by removing nests. Provide a safe, dry, nutritious environment.
Suddenly rolls on the floor frequently and whimpers, but no mating posture when I pat the rear; then suddenly bolts and screams.
This does not look like heat; females in heat howl at night, cling, raise tails, and smell strong. Rolling then bolting may signal neuritis or discomfort; a vet check is needed if it persists.
