I heard somewhere that a warm wet towel for her to sit on can be calming  Or playing can distract her for awhile.  Just don't let her go outside unless you want to add to your family of pets.

Keep her inside until she can get fixed! Maybe a shelter can help.

I have always had mine fixed as kittens, I have never had a cat go in heat.

If they are not fixed they go in heat every 1 to 6 weeks.

The best thing to do is to get her fixed otherwise she is going to drive you crazy. That is the full proof way to stop all that noise that she is making.

If she stopped meowing she's probably out of heat.  Get her fixed ASAP.  Besides going into best about twice a year, not getting her fixed can cause cancer.  If you can't afford to have her fixed at your vet, I would think there are low cost neutering clinics around you.  Check with a rescue group I'm sure they can help you.  Please get her fixed.

The estrous cycle generally ranges from 1 to 6 weeks, with 2 or 3 weeks being the average. Get her spayed ASAP!

I had a female go into heat once and got her fixed.  It was miserable!!!!!!  The male isn't much better.  Constantly roaming around looking for a way to get out.  He's getting fixed, soon, too!
