My spayed cat jumped. Is her incision infected after surgery?

Question

Hello, My cat was spayed yesterday and I tried my hardest to follow all the rules and even made sure there was no furniture in the room my cat was sleeping in so she wouldn’t jump but when I left for class and came back, I saw that she had jumped to reach the door handle and gotten the door open and was chilling on my bed (which is high up off the ground) I’m very worried she opened up the stitches and maybe even got an infection. Please can you tell me if this wound looks infected? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed

Hello. Cats don’t like to follow the rules sometimes. This incision looks great. The flakiness is just some residue of the skin glue, the green is tattoo ink . There does not appear to be any problems with this incision at all right now. Continue to monitor it and watch specifically for redness, discharge or significant swelling.
