Question
i have 2 netherland dwarf bunnies that are in heat 25 days out of 30. is spaying them a safe solution to the problem? they are sweeties but the squeeling and spraying is impossible to deal with and one is more aggressive when in heat Help.Both are female.

Answer
The surgery may be a bit more complicated, but yes, it's definitely possible to spay them while 'in heat'. Spaying will help to cut down on aggression, spraying, and other behavioral issues, and will prevent the development of reproductive cancers. You can find a rabbit savvy veterinarian from the House Rabbit Society's list:
