Only problem I had with a spay was Topie: she suddenly became Little Climbing Bastard.
And having had a cat go on heat before we could get her fixed - you don't want that.

Cats in heat are an absolute nightmare. Having handled a cat who was spayed but behaved like she was in heat anyway a couple of times... aaaaaaaaaaa.

Yes I've had quite a few instances of Gibson in heat and holy shit is it annoying! She acts so different too. Very snuggly and loving. Wish she was like that normally lol

Dear lord ,I'm surprised you didn't spay her earlier - yeah it's a real double edged sword when they are SUPER cuddly, but then the yowling, my god the yowling and the spraying - it would've been unbearable.

Mine is currently a climbing bastard to the point where we have to play "parkour" a few times a day to get her energy out.
