sterilizing my rabbits

Question
Hi!I have a few pet rabbits, but they are breeding too much.I would like to know if there is any other method of sterilizing except for spaying/neutering?

Answer
Dear Mieneke,

The only humane, reliable method is spay/neuter.  If you can't do that, then at least separate the males from the females and have the males neutrered so that you can take your time having the females spayed (more expensive, and  more major surgery).

I hope that helps.
