A little background:
My in-laws had an overbreeding issue. After a lot of hard work, we managed to get most of them adopted out, with 10 cats left with us currently. Yes, it's a lot of hard work and cleaning, but they're mostly lazy loveable fur balls who get along fine with each other. I have had all the males neutered, so no more kittens, thank heavens.
But, now it's time for the 6 ladies to get fixed (in batches of 2) because I don't want to lose them if we get a complaint about their caterwauling. The cats rule the living room, but aren't allowed in the bedrooms. My husband and myself don't even have a proper bedroom - just a part of the hall cordoned off by sliding doors. Which is to say, we have absolutely no where to put the cats apart from their crates when they're recovering from their surgeries. Obviously, my kitties love jumping onto chairs or other places to sleep, and I can't very well put them in their crates for 2 weeks straight.
I'm not too worried about other cats licking their spay site, because I'll be putting them into recovery onesies for at least 2 weeks after their surgeries. I just don't know how to keep them calm and stop them jumping on furniture. I don't have a job, so I'll be available to care for them during the day.
Anything at all would be helpful!
