hi i went to the vet the other day to ask when is the soonest they can spay my rabbit. the vet there said 3 month. sounds to soon or am i wrong do you think i should go somewhere else
I have just seen your other thread and my god, your bun is gorgeous!!
She's a conti isn't she? They are slow growers, and I would not reccomend getting her spayed at 3 months old, I think its too early for a giant breed. I think 6 months-ish is better :wave:
How big is your girl? Some vets will go on size instead of age because the most important thing is that they can see the bits they are operating on. A lot of vets will say 6 months, but that might be because they aren't very confident. Is there a particular reason why you have to get her done early? If not then anywhere between 3 months and 6 months would be suitable. I'd ask more questions to your vet about how confident they are, what sort of outcomes they have. If they lose a lot of patients then I would find another vet.
I think the youngest a rabbit can be spayed is 12 weeks/3months, so if that's the question you asked it's a valid answer. What you need to check is whether that's the age they recommend for your bunny
he is going in soon that is why i asked my vet about stanley because i would like them to be done around the same time so we can let them play as soon as(her brother belongs to my mum they dont live together just play)
I really wouldn't reccomend to do that... bunnies don't get along like dogs do. They are territorial, and if you take your bun over every so often to your mums, it will end in fights, there is no doubt about it. I would keep them away from each other, unless you are thinking of bonding them permanantly.
I would really think about getting your girl Stanley a friend instead, so she can be with him constantly!
we are there every day
