Fixing bunny is a surgical procedure that keeps bunny from having babies. It'll keep them from wanting to mate and is important if you have both boy and girl. You should never have one fixed and not the other. If you only have one rabbit then you can probably pass on fixing him. Unless he starts to show signs of aggression, is very territorial, pees everywhere, or you want another bunny should you get him fixed. Also, never go to vets that don't specialize in rabbits. A rabbit needs a special vet that deals with rabbits regularly.
Benefits of Spaying and Neutering:
.Keeps bunny from having babies.
.Helps aggressive bunnies to be less aggressive.
.Helps keep bunny from having the need to pee on everything (marking his/her territory)
.Can help keep bunny from types of cancers.
If you take bunny to get her fixed take note that the vets may or may not keep her overnight.
They will probably give you pain medication and you'll have to make sure bunny's cage is cleaned out REALLY well. Avoid picking bunny up around the tummy or allowing her too much exercise. She may be groggy or a bit sleepy the first few days after surgery.
Note for parents:There is always a risk in bunny going into surgery and not coming out. Remember that vets are always very careful about bunny. Sadly, mistakes do happen. Although this very, very rare.
