I was supposed to bring Scarlett and Trip home after her spay and was told to call the vets at 6pm to arrange collecting them after speaking to them about 4 times that afternoon and being told Scarlett was recovering well, and when I called nobody answered the phone or called me back after I left about 10 messages on the answerphone and by the time I had got to the surgery nobody answered the door so I sat up all night worrying :? Can you tell im still really annoyed about that :roll:
I would rather have my buns home with me that night because when I collected Trip and Scarlett the next day I was handed back the container of food I sent them with, because they fed them the rabbit food they had there even though I asked for them to be given what I had packed for them :? And when I asked if Scarlett had eaten the reply I got from the nurse was 'well the food was eaten, but I suppose Trip could have eaten the lot because we werent watching them all night' :?
Thats why I wanted them home because I would have actually stayed up to watch Scarlett all night and would have known if she was eating, and the vets did charge me about £50 for the overnight stay :evil: :roll: :?
I would personally want my girl home so I could keep an eye on her and know she is being watched all night, providing the op went ok
But if you completely trust your vets then an overnight stay shouldnt be a problem
Both my girls stayed in the house for about 4 nights with loads of blankets, heatpads and cuddles from me
