yeah more than likely, prepare for many nights of broken sleep. i was in the same position with my first cat (didn't know anything about it) last year. she will probably be frisky and noisy for about 2 weeks, then she may calm down for a few days, then it'll start up again. when she seems likes she calmed down a bit, get her booked into the vets to get spayed. they won't (or usually don't) spay cats on heat because... i don't know why... its too tricky inside or something. haha, very technical. don't worry though, just get her booked in soon so you can get some sleep. xx
If she is non-pedigree it might be wise to get her spayed ASAP as cats have mating cycles, and these cycles are affected by the time of year, usually in mid - winter, spring and again in late summer and autumn.
During these times, a female cat will go into heat every two to three weeks and stay in heat for days at a time until she's mated.
Cats that live indoors with controlled lighting or in warm climates, cycle all year round so can be in season all the time
