Awww bless him! He'll thank you for it once he meets his new wifey in a few months :)

Will be thinking about him on Friday, im sure he'll be fine though :) Will he be indoors for a few days?

When i had Ronnie at 16 weeks he was only 3.3kg :lol: Hes now 6.4kg at 8 months old so yours are gonna be biggggg bunnies!!! :D :D xXx Sending lots of vibes xXx
 
thanks for the reply becky

im going to keep him in friday night in the kitchen but as he has his winter coat the vet says i should put him back out sat morning.

vet said just to remove all hay as it may scratch and give hima quilt or some thing soft to sleep on.

any advice would be fab:wave:
 
Hmm... we always keep them in for around 2 days after the op as you'll find he'll only be getting back to his normal self sat morning and if its cold sat, id be worried about him. Does he have a snugglesafe to go back outside with?

Yep no hay/straw or wood shavings on the floor, just use old towels, sheets or a duvet for a week or so :) Will keep your washing machine busy :lol:

Plenty of his favourite veg to tempt him to eat when hes home :) If he has a bottle to drink out of, id also give him a bowl as after the op it seems to help more :)

Your vet does sound good, nice of them to tell you the basics :) Of course youve always got us guys on here if your worried about anything :)

Hope all goes well tomorrow xXx
