Will my cat stop charging for the door after he’s neutered?

Dear Most Esteemed and Knowledgeable Kitties: Why does my adorable adopted male grey and white cat always run out the door as soon as it opens? He is very vocal at night. He doesn’t stay out long, and he finds his way home. He has his neuter appointment this Saturday. After he is “fixed,” will that calm him down and keep him inside? ~Eva Siouxsie: Well, Eva, we have to confess that “door dashing” is a very popular feline hobby, especially for those of us who have had the chance to be outside cats before.
