The vet is being straight with you -- 10-14 days is about right for the various incisions to heal. If she goes outside, she will have to run and jump in such an environment, where heaven knows what she will encounter, which can easily open her incisions (external and internal, as she has just had an organ removed....).
If you are not able to improvise a temporary confined area for her, I would recommend trying to find a temporary foster home for her. Create a number of flyers, explaining the situation, with your contact number, and go around to some local vets and ask if you can post them in their office, and maybe they can help you find a Good Samaritan. They may also know of shelters who can help out.
Or go to Petfinder.org, type in your zip code, and see if any small shelters turn up in your area, and contact them and ask them if they can foster the cat or help you place it. Or pick their brains for another suggestion.
Doing the right thing is not always easy, my dear, and I hope you find a solution that works for you and the kitty. :hug:
(PS) Males will have easily visible testicles just below their anus, if you want to ID its gender. Of course, male neutering is a far simpler procedure.
