Yes, they can get very moody in their "time of year". That's perfectly normal. Heats normally last for 3 weeks...21 days. If she will not tolerate the diaper...which I'm thinking she'll get use to it...you should crate her or put her in an x-pen to save you lots of laundry and your furniture.
They are normally good about keeping themselves clean but since it is her first heat, her instincts may not have "clicked" in. |
