Ludo is being neutered on Tuesday hopefully if the vet can squish us in, they appreciate that I want him done asap rather than worrying about it forever!
He's going for a pre-op chat tomorrow at 10am with the vet.
I'm now having doubts.
What happens if my lovely Ludo bunny changes personality and turns into a horror after neutering?
If he turns aggressive or anything then my Mum and sister who help look after him wouldn't help any more and I wouldn't manage on very disabled days or when I'm out then what would happen?
I can't just say oh I'll pop him outside in the cabin with another bunny because getting another rabbit isn't an option either, for lots of reasons, some to do with Ludo's health (2 rabbits would have to go outside, and Ludo's stasis has been prevented 3 times now from being seen quickly where he's been indoors).
And on a selfish level, me and Ludo are BFFs. We spend 16 hours a day together nearly every day. We watch Cowboy Builders and Family Fortunes together. We snuggle on the floor together. We lie nose to nose together. He likes being stroked and having his cheeks tickled. He licks my face. He hates having his paws touched. He thumps when breakfast is late. He's so lovely, he's just perfect, even my Dad who doesn't like animals in houses doesn't mind a freerange Ludo hopping around. That's my Ludo.
I just want Ludo not to jump up and pee on me in the evenings, like he's started in the last few days. When he tries sometimes he falls and nearly hurts himself. Or to run round me in circles grunting, ditto in the last few days.
Help RU what shall I do. I don't need to know about the pros and cons of neutering, I know those, and Ludo has special circumstances with his health... I just need to know about his behaviour. Will I lose my lovely boy or will he still be friendly?
