neautering

Question
My rabbit is now just over 5 months, she's an absolute doll, she lives indoors & she is as good as gold.  She has just started getting a funny smell, its very strong. Is it her spraying to find a mate?  If so, would it be best for her to have her neatered?
Thanks
Louise  

Answer
Dear Louise,

Yes, your bunny is approaching the age where you might want to consider spaying her.  You can find more information on this here:

and find a good rabbit vet here:

For more information about pre- and post-op care, read:

I hope this helps.  Please write back if you have any other questions.
