Is neutering a must for my single rabbit if vets aren't experienced?

There are definitely benefits to neutering your rabbit- decreased risk of testicular cancer and urinary tract problems, decreased chance of behavioral issues like aggression, decreased chance of urine marking and increased chance of litter box training. You can read more at https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951545. That being said, you do not have to neuter your rabbit, and many rabbits will live a full life without being neutered, so it is a personal decision you can make based on the information provided.

Rabbits do usually have pretty long testicles, and testicular cancer is very uncommon in rabbits. I typically don’t neuter them unless they are spraying urine and the owners want it to stop, or if they will be cohabiting with females. It is definitely not wrong to neuter by any means, but the risk of testicular cancer is low. I hope this helps! Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.

Although elderly, if he is fit and well and testicular issues are confirmed then yes, castration would be recommended. You should contact your vet to discuss gabis options in light of previous and current issues

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Neutering your male bunny is definitely a good idea, as it will help him not spray urine or be aggressive, and will prevent unwanted pregnancy should you decide to get a female rabbit in the future.

It is recommended for pet rabbits to be spayed because of the very high risk of uterine cancer in this species - around 50% of intact female rabbits are estimated to get uterine cancer, which is a huge number. It's true that wild rabbits don't have surgery to be spayed, but they also have many more health problems and shorter lifespans than pet rabbits :) The cost to spay a rabbit will vary depending on what part of the country you live in and which specific clinic you use, so I would recommend calling around to some local vets who do this surgery to ask about costs.

No, rabbits would not be a particularly high risk for haemorrhage following castration once performed by an experienced vet. Nursing care of rabbits to prevent loss of body heat during anaesthesia is important as is good pain relief and early feeding after recovery

I suggest you ask your vet how they plan to do the surgery. They will be able to give you better answers to your questions since we are not privy to their procedures. All I can tell you is what most vets do. Most veterinarians do not leave stitches on the outside of the incision any more. They will likely be only under the skin so you may not have to worry about the stitches. The medication he would take after surgery is usually a liquid and you would just squirt it in his mouth. Your vet can show you how to do this. Yes, you should keep him in small area for about 7-10 days to minimize his activity. You should constantly monitor him for the first 12 hours after surgery. After that you should just check on him every 6 hours or so to make sure his is doing OK. Hope this answers your questions. Best wishes.
