Pre spay vet consultation?

Thumper2001 wrote:Thanks guys

I just phoned again and the lady at my branch made me feel much better She said they get a full check before they do the op and if they aren't happy with her, they will not do it

I asked if the vet would refuse to do it if he thought she was too little and/or needed a bit more time and she said "Absolutely".

So feeling a *bit* better about it.

I thought they did they have to really, glad your are feeling better about it

I'm still really nervous for her but yes, I do feel a bit better about it.

Can't wait for it to be over. Roll on Friday when it's all over and she will hopefully be eating etc.

If you get worried about her at all after her spay just phone us if you haven't got my number I will pm it you and you can ring us any time of the day or night

We are getting our bunnies spayed and neutered on wednesday and we havent been for a seperate check up however the vet said shed look at the bunnies before hand and check them over. Is that ok?

Thank you Maysie. That is a really lovely offer and it is much appreciated.

That sounds like what I have been told Apparently they have to give them a thorough check beforehand.

Yeah Tigger had a thorough check beforehand (gave me an excuse for a cuddle too!) They asked lots of questions as well like her behaviour and any sneezing etc, the usual. I hope both your vets are just as thorough but I'm sure they will be.

This has been a good thread. We are trying to find a TRULY bunny savvy vet. We've discovered that some here claim to be, but doing "5 neuters and 2 spays in a YEAR" does not seem to me to be near enough. "Oh, yes! One of our vets sees rabbits! He saw one just 2 months ago!" Grrrrrrr.

We had to pass up a delightful lop because we hadn't had Thumper neutered yet. Poor thing. Someone dumped her on these people's porch because they raise rabbits......for meat.

I hope all goes well for her love.

Sending positive pre-spay vibes for the beautiful and adventurous Molly!
For some reason all of her antics remind me of Angelina Jolie as the action
movie heroine Laura Croft! I wish you could have a bunny cam on them while
you are out so we could all see her adventures. You'd have the basis for
a YouTube video that would go viral because of her being so adorable and
creative in her stunts!

It is such a nice feeling when you get reassurance from someone when a baby is poorly. I am sending lots of huggles and vibes too.
