Just last night she started peeing on the sofa. Ccould of my cat mated and gotten pregnant? why is she acting the way she is?


Answer
Pat,

Yes your cat is in heat and yes she may be pregnant. I would get her spayed right away. Their personality changes when they are bred for the first time because of the pain and confusion of it all. Spaying should get your sweet kitty back again.
