at what age does a rabbit become...

...a little sod!

Gracie is 6 months old now, and during the last couple of weeks her behaviour has taken a complete nose dive! She's become a right handfull, missbehaving, chewing, scratching, and in particular chucking the contents of the litter tray all over the place!! Chewy on the other hand has never been this bad, he is 1 year old and has had the snip early this year.

Gracie is booked in for her spay next monday, the vet said its classical hormonal behaviour and the litter tray thing is most likely a nesting type reaction. But this last week she has been a right little git even so far as having a little scrat at my foot a couple of times lastnight which is totally out of character.......still loves a good fuss tho the lil sod!

Are females notoriously like this or?

Re: at what age does a rabbit become...

Most females will go like this, rabbits are induced breeders meaning the egg is released when the male is around. Think of her as having permanent PMT till she's spayed. Like people not all females get like this but most do.

Re: at what age does a rabbit become...

bloody hell tink I never realised it could get that bad!

Miffy was always perfectly clean even tho I didnt have her spayed til she was 2, I dont think her personalities change much either, but I do wish I had her done earlier before she became such a madam.
