Hey everyone, just looking for some general advice on how long I should wait before introducing a newly spayed female to our already neutered male?
We recently lost our lovely Len's wifebun, Piglet and have been looking every day for a new companion for him, but we're drawing blanks at every turn. We've tried the RSPCA and other rescues in our area and beyond, but there's a dearth of lady buns at the moment. We've been looking for 3 weeks now but with no luck and it's getting frustrating.
We wanted to find a spayed bun so that we could get on with the bond straight away, but are now widening our search to private owners who are looking for new homes for their unspayed buns. My question is, if we found a suitable lady, could we get her spayed and then keep them side by side in separate crates until she's healed or do we have to keep them completely separate (I.e in separate rooms)?
Any advice greatly appreciated!
