>>I had my cat spayed. For some reason it didn't take. I took her back and the vet did it again. He said she was all good to go. Now my cat is in heat again!
>>The vet said something about the estrogen could be coming from the kidneys somehow. Does this sound right? He said the ovaries and kidneys were formed from the same cells so sometimes the cells get mixed up.

I've never heard of anything like this before. I know that in some cases, they miss something in the spay and the piece that is left still produces female hormones, but to have a kidney produce estrogen...well that sounds fishy to me. But I am not a vet, so who knows. I do agree with the others who said to get a second opinion tough. Let us know what happens!
