        Hello! I wanted to ask if anyone knows of a good spaying/neutering clinic in the Las Vegas, NV area that is very low cost. Hermione has recently decided that the world is her litterbox, Ginny is evil and must be destroyed and she must escape from everywhere to chew EVERYTHING. To put it mildly, Hermiones behavior is extremely bad right now and I recently found out that the feed store where I got her did NOT spay her like they said they had . Yes, I am very annoyed about this because now I have Ginny all terrified as to why her best friend suddenly went “rabid” and started attacking her. As you can see, I need to get Hermione spayed ASAP but my family is pretty tight on money right now and can’t afford all of the expensive stuff. At the moment Hermione is in a separate cage and it looks like I’m going to have to go through the whole bonding process with Hermione and Ginny all over again because some ignorant store employee told me I was buying a spayed rabbit.

        Help anyone? Thank you!!

          If you contact local rabbit rescues, they can usually help you find a cheap spay/neuter. Looking outside of the immediate area is a good idea too—sometimes it’s worth traveling for a good price. Just be careful, and make sure that the vet is experienced so your bun is in good hands.

            That’s a good idea, LEL.

            There is this list of clinics offering “affordable” spay/neuter on this animal league page. Only one says they do rabbit spay/neuter.

              Thank you guys so much! Does anyone have an idea of what I can do to try to defuse the situation while I wait? I’m keeping them mostly apart but with a few meetings between bars. Such as I’ll put Hermione in a kennel and have Ginny on the outside or vice versa but it usually ends in Hermione trying to bite through the bars (she can’t get to Ginny) and Ginny curled against the opposite corner. I looked over Ginny and Hermione and found that Ginny was hurt pretty bad (nothing that needs stitches, but I am pretty scared she could get an infection). I’ve washed her and she’s not bleeding anywhere, she’s mostly just scratched up and Hermione has a few bite marks but they’re just kinda pink. Again, I can’t afford a vet appointment unless it’s ABSOLUTELY necessary so anything I can do to help speed up her healing and recovery. I’ll switch off their turns on different levels of the cage so everything smells like each other, though I’m not sure that’s helping. Right now Ginny is playing happily outside with her brothers and Hermione is locked up safely away from her in the house. Anyone have any idea what I could do to not exactly re-bond them yet, I know that’s basically impossible right now, but just so that they aren’t at each others throats if they see one another? Thanks!
