Was my kitten spayed?
My kitten has no scar, clipped ears, no short hair (Never has been) but never is in heat. all she does is meow when she wants out and tries to play with two neighborhood cats. (I think the striped tabby is a tom) called Buster who's black and white and another tabby cat.

If she was spayed very young, the scars might not show. Have her belly shaved. She might have a tattoo. If in doubt, have an ultrasound performed.

how old is your kitten? where did you get her? Basically, what makes you think she was spayed? Many SPCAs spay very young, you won't notice any scar - especially with fur covering it (can you find her naval? they have them, but they are hard to find). If she is still very young, she could be too young to go into heat anyway. As MissNM suggested, an ultrasound would tell you for certain.
Why would you expect her to have a clipped ear?

Hello and welcome to the forum. Could you please give us more information on your kitten.
How do you know she's never been in heat? How old is she? Has she been to the vet at all? Where did you get her from?
She should not be outside, interacting with other cats when you don't know if she is spayed, and especially if she hasn't been vaccinated.
You are risking her health, and an unwanted pregnancy (which will also risk her health) by doing so.

The clip feral cats' ears when they trap and neuter them.
Was she a stray you're thinking may have been trapped and fixed?

I hope you are aware of the dangers of letting a cat outside to roam around. Please think this over before she gets older and harder to keep indoors.
