My cat is jumping after neuter. Should I confine him for recovery?

Question

Hello! My cat was neutered about 15 hours ago, and he's already back to normal! The problem is, he jumps to my sofa to set there whilest I'm not in the room, and I found him on my bed as well. I don't want to scold him cause I feel sorry for him, and I also don't want him to run! Do I have to confinde him to make sure he doesn't climb up my sofa! I've checked him and he's alright, but I'm still worried! Thank you! Q. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 1 year and 2 months old

Hello, Im glad to hear Felix is already doing well. He should be fine if he is kept quiet for the next several days. To prevent jumping and excessive activity, you may need to confine him to a small pen or crate. However, if this is stressing him out to much, you can also try to confine him to a small room. Ultimately, if he is still not keeping quiet, then just watching him for any bleeding while he wonders around would be the best in order to prevent him from being too stressed. Hope this helps and best of luck.
