Lionhead male rabbit

Question
Should I get my lionhead rabbit neutered?  It is my only rabbit, so I am not concerned about baby bunnies.

Answer
Dear Angel,

There are many reasons to have him neutered, including the risk of testicular cancer (not all that common in males, but not unheard of), controlling objectionable behaviors such as spraying, mounting, and aggression, and allowing him to live in harmony with a spayed mate that you let him choose from among the needy rescued bunnies at your local rabbit rescuer's foster home.

Hope that will help you make a decision.
