Rabbit Spay and Neuter

Pet owners must take care of their pets so that they may long and healthy lives. Most veterinary offices offer spay and neuter surgery for cats and dogs but fail to accommodate other animals like rabbits. Our team at Care Pet Hospital and Resort in Jacksonville provides rabbit owners the care they need to ensure optimal wellness for their animals. We provide rabbits with spay and neuter surgery for when they need it most.

What Is Spay and Neuter Surgery?

Spaying is a procedure involving surgical removal of the ovaries and uterus of the female rabbit. On the other hand, neutering is the surgical procedure done to the male rabbits by castrating to no longer breed. In most cases, the female and male rabbits coexist with each other and commonly are seen to live in pairs. We advise that you take your rabbit to our veterinary office so that your animal can be properly spayed or neutered.

Reasons You May Need to Spay and Neuter Rabbits

Reduce the Overpopulation of Rabbits

Abandoned rabbits are a regular occurrence. The leading cause is that the population of the rabbit’s home might have exceeded the owner’s capability to take care of the pet, causing the animal to be abandoned. At our Jacksonville and Fruit Cove locations, we offer affordable vet care to help curb the overpopulation of rabbits.

Spaying and Neutering Offers Numerous Health Benefits

Evident results have shown that fixed rabbits can live longer and healthier lives. Female rabbits are ordinarily susceptible to reproductive cancers such as ovarian or uterine cancer. Spaying can be the key that you need to protect your rabbit from this cancer. Neutering a male rabbit will assist in toning down his aggression that might have caused unnecessary havoc.

Spayed Rabbits Make Better Companions

After the surgical procedure, you are bound to notice the change that comes from the pet bunnies. Often, the pet rabbit tends to be calmer than before, and the aggressive behavior that was previously witnessed usually lowers.

Spaying Reduces Unwanted Behaviors

Male rabbits spray their urine so that they can mark their territory. The urine typically comes with a strong odor. To stop such behavior, we advise neutering your pet.

When to Spay and Neuter a Rabbit?

We usually advise spaying the female rabbit as soon as they mature sexually, usually around four and six months. Neutering of the male rabbit can be down between the age of three and five months. It’s important to consult our staff to find out the optimal time for your pet to be spayed or neutered.
