At what age does a female cat come in heat? A cat comes in heat when she sexually matures. Usually a cats first season is somewhere between 4 and 10 months old with average age around six months.

A cat will stay in heat for about 7 to 15 days, if not mated successfully; normally falling in and out of heat cycles from January to August. This is because, cats are polyestrous breeders, which means that they have multiple heat cycles in a year, as compared to dogs that have just two heat cycles in a year. Most female cats have 2 to 4 estrous periods every year. However, if she is bred, the heat cycle seldom lasts more than 4 days.
