    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions.

And now I'm freaking out..... :cry: I hope it all goes well but still worried as she's 4 years old and bit older than when most buns get spayed... Any advice on things we can do to make this easier for her would be appreciated! Many vibes requested for her Saturday ordeal.
 
I don't know if there is anything extra to do, but I had 2 of my buns done a couple of years ago and they were 4, they sailed through it. I know what you mean about worrying though, we recently took in Betsy, who is 5 and I an dithering about getting her done because of her age. She seems very healthy and isn't too fat so I hope she will be fine.

Best of luck.
 
That's good news. Glad to hear from someone who's done their buns at the same age as our little girl. We already had to put her on a diet as the vet felt it was safer for her for the spay and 2 weeks ago he confirmed she'd lost almost all of the weight he was hoping for so now we're biting the bullet. My biggest worry is that he'll find something we don't know about. Probably more worried about that than the actual spay as my boyfriend did not know of the health concerns of not spaying her when he first got her. :(
