Re: maisie's reached the big 1kg!!

Personally I would wait a bit longer, her organs will be underdeveloped at the moment making the op 10times harder. I would only recommend spaying this young if it was an emergency spay due to medical problems or pregnancy.

It won't hurt to wait a few more weeks.

Re: maisie's reached the big 1kg!!

Hi, great news she is doing so well.
I'd wait longer too. I recently had Honey done as 6 mths and she took some nursing afterwards to see her through. She is fine now and it's the right thing to do but I'd wait a while longer so she is stronger

Re: maisie's reached the big 1kg!!

When I ring up the vet I'm gunna ask them the pros and cons to getting it done now and if it would be better for her to wait a while coz when I asked them last time they were like yer a couple of weeks when she is 1kg. So I'm gunna get a second opinion.

Re: maisie's reached the big 1kg!!

I would definitely get a second opinion hun, some vets aren't very rabbit savvy so will just say anything/make stuff up as they go along!

My vets are great and my mum is waiting to have her bunny spayed but they have only just said yes they'll do it because they wanted Pippin to be 1kg and over 6 months old. Well Pippin has also only just reached 1kg at 8 1/2 months old, yay. She's a teeny tiny nethi
