Young Bun
Hi!
So, following on from my previous thread, I THINK Peanut is over the worst of the stasis! She is eating... everything in sight! Drinking quite well and pooping lots (although they're quite proteiny at the moment)? I'm hoping this will improve? She is also running and hopping everywhere like a nutcase which is lovely to see!
When I took Peanut to the vet last week when she wasn't eating or running around, the vet recommended getting her neutered.
Now, the reason we didn't is because when she was 6 months my husband stood on her -_- totally accidentally of course and he received many slaps!
It was a long 3 months of syringe feeding and xrays which then followed with an abscess which we treated with the manuka honey and cleared in about 4 days.
Due to this, I didn't trust her strength to get through the operation so we didn't have her neutered.
However, as the vet has recommended it... I just wanted some thoughts as she will be 4 in September and I've read it is more dangerous for bunnies over 3?
Any advice or similar age neutering experiences much appreciated!
EDIT: She has never had kits by the way and is a house bunny.
