Bunny spay

Young Bun
Ok so my girl is ready to be spayed and i have £175 saved (omg i'm a terrible saver so proud:lol:) just incase there is a problem and i need to spalsh out for her best possible care :)

but now my parents are going 'its a waste of money, don't be stupid, youe got collage and driving lessons to think about. Its a bloody rabbit, its a waste of money, absolutley no point, your being so stupid :evil:

Ughh i'm so annoyed, id rather pay for my bun anyday. She doesnt agree and so i will have to go on my own so i was wondering if i will be allowed. I'm 16 and will be the one signing the papers. Do i have to be over 18 to be allowed by the vet? oh and any tips to make me not appear 'stupid' or 'just' a rabbit:( shes not just a rabbit :censored:
 
I think if you're paying, especially if you're paying by card, you should be fine.

I mean, we can get jobs at 16 and legally go out and buy a pet on our own, I don't see why we shouldn't be allowed to get care for our pets!

It's a shame you don't have your family's support though:( xx
 
I have complete respect for you that you are caring for your bun properly and putting its welfare first. What happens if you don't spay and she gets cancer in a few years!!
 
Well done for saving that much and taking care of your bun! I completely understand where your coming from, parents just don't understand! I haven't even told my parents that Oscar is vaccinated because they would say that... :roll:
 
Sorry about your parents' attitude. Some people just don't 'get it' do they. Bet they wouldn't have said that had you been talking about a cat or dog.:(

Haha that is the exact same with me! i had to mention the spay because she would need to be kept a close eye on and would be shaved etc. but i keep the vaccines a secerate, i'm not prepared to argue a case i know she will not listnen too :roll: :)
