Male Siamese cats display several distinct behaviors when in heat. They may exhibit spraying behavior, where they stand with their tails raised and quivering, spraying urine onto vertical surfaces. This action is not about emptying the bladder but marking territory. Other signs include a swollen reproductive system, restlessness, and attempts to escape outdoors to find a mate. They may also become more vocal.
