There is no other advice. You need to get her spayed as soon as possible. You're not being fair on her or the multitude of unwanted cats out there looking for a home and the overrun charities trying to help them.

I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about this season (apart from making damned sure that she doesn't get out and no tom cats make their way in, of course) but then you need a vet appointment for her to be spayed within a couple of weeks before it happens again.
Cats have a season about every 3 weeks and you can spay any time that they aren't in season. Vets usually work a week or so in advance for elective things like spays, so get your appointment sorted now
As for what you do to get through this season, the honest answer is gin or ear plugs

Yes, but again, presumably she's behaving like this because she's frustrated and unhappy. If you have her spayed she won't have to keep going through this. You need to think about *her* welfare.

Getting her spayed will stop her calling, coming into season, eliminate the chances of unwanted kittens (Even an indoor cat can slip out the door/window, especially ones in season!), and reduce the chances of her developing certain types of cancer.
It's a very routine operation and I think the benefits outweigh the risks. Our old cat was an indoors moggy so my mum never thought to have her spayed. She developed mammary cancer which eventually killed her after countless ops to try removing it.

If you are not breading them, why have you not already had them spayed?

Thats not the case at all. Cats don't need to have a litter.
Please, for the health and happiness of your cats, get them spayed

Please get her spayed. It worries me that in this day and age people still think cats NEED to have kittens. I know you've said you changed your mind but perhaps do some further reading about the benefits of spaying?
