Is there a best time to get a rabbit spayed (Season/month)? I was hoping to get her fixed by the end of Summer but she wont stop messing everywhere It's a right hassle to clear up every morning. So I'm debating on getting her done sooner now. She's a 6 month old Netherland Dwarf.
Her favourite places to mess and wee are on newspaper (so I can't line the hutch with out replacing it daily) and hay, even though I use it as their food source she'll pee all over it. Which is extremely frustrating, I've tried a hay rack but they pull it all out together (Blossom and Thumper) and she'll go and wee all over it.
My theory is that getting her fixed will help litter train her, Thumper is really well litter trained and will only pee in his box and no where else which is great But she just wont do it unless I line 6 specific areas with litter boxes, by which point it covers most of their hutch area anyway so it seems pointless
Help!
PS- cleaning it up daily wouldn't be an issue if I didn't have to wake up to go to work at 5:45am! I finish work at 5:30pm and don't get home till around 6:30pm if I'm lucky :/ So if she was cleaner and tidyer it'd help me alot so I can get an extra 15 minutes in bed at least.
