M kitten went into season at 4 months old - Her season seemed to go away after about 3 days. When she uses the litter tray she seems to spend a long time in there but doesn't produce a lot of urine and it is bright yellow. She is also sleeping a lot more than usual.

Could this be a sign of pregnancy or an infection??

Sounds like an infection, give the vet a ring, at such a young age it could become serious if left.
Unless you are planning to breed from your cat then it is time to take her to your vet to be neutered. If she had access to 'outside' during those 3 days she could already be pregnant. If you don't want to be responsible for the healthcare, feeding, raising & homing up to 8 kittens then phone the vet tomorrow & book her in for a spey. You can get help with the costs from a charity if you need to. I hope that you've already taken care of her other health care needs such as worming & vaccinations.
If you decide that you don't want to get her neutered then you can expect her to come into season every 3 weeks for 7-10 days at a time all through the spring & summer & possibly the autumn/ winter too.... Until she gets pregnant. If allowed to come repeatedly into season & not bred from she is at extra risk of uterine infections. Hope this helps - x.

She was booked in to be spayed early September and I really wasn't expecting her to come into season so young.. If however she is pregnant I would be totally against aborting the pregnancy.

Unfortunately she had been missing for a day and when she returned she was in season and therefor probably did get some male attention.

I will get her to the vets first thing

Thanks guys :)
