  Kalina was only 6 months when she had her first heat.  It's really not as gruesome as you think.  There were a few drops of blood here and there, and she was swollen.  You can put a little doggie diaper on her inside the house if you have to.  It is definately best to have them spayed before they go into heat for the first time.  It prevents them from getting breast cancer.  Usually six months is a good age to arrange for the spay.  They do not bleed for the entire 3 weeks.
