We have four girls, and the three youngest have been doing it like clockwork, twice a month - guinealynx says they go in heat every 16 to 18 days. Our oldest had not been doing it because they say they calm down with age. However, now she does the purring quite a bit and it has been suggested that she has ovarian cysts, which they can get at that age. We are considering spaying for her, because she's acting like king of the hill all the time, and the others are sick of it.
