Just took my 8 month old Nethie to be neutered this morning and got a call an hour later saying that Mr Burrows is actually Mrs Burrows. :?
So she's gone in for a spay (remarkably cheap.. at £55)
I'm very worried. Please send vibes to my baby girl.
Can anyone give me more info on aftercare for spayed rabits? Is it roughly the same as neutering. I know it takes a little longer to heal and is more invasive surgery but I'm hoping all will be great.
Any advice is great thanks.
 
The bunny Frank used to live with (not together, facing each other in different hutches) before he came to live here has just gone from a girl to boy. :lol:

They took 'her' to be spayed and it turned out she had a pair of furry plums.

I'm sure she'll be okay.
 
Yes but my vet had checked and didn't say otherwise (she's quite a good bunny vet) 3 weeks later, different vet (not as fond of bunnies as the other) at the same practice confirmed my suspicions that Flopsie didn't have any plums and he thought the bunny was a girl.

I'm still hoping that they drop soon lol :)
 
I'm sure SHE will be fine :D I was a nervous wreck when my girlie went in for spaying but I was amazed at how quickly she came round. I'm sure you already know about getting them to eat as soon as possible and keeping an eye on pee and poop output. Clover didn't eat till next morning but drank a good amount of water the night of the op (when encouraged). I think the main thing that helped her get over things was the long-lasting painkiller and gut stimulant the vet prescribed. Make sure your rabbit has had pain medication and stimulant before taking her home. Good luck with nursing duties tonight!!!
