  Hello everyone, I wonder if anyone can suggest something to understand the behavior of my bunny.
  I got a bunny 3 months ago and she was wonderful, playful, caring, would sleep in my bed, would come running to me when I got some food from the fridge.
  She was so loving, I couldn’t be happier with my bunny.
  2 weeks ago I got her spayed, because it was supposed to be better for her in a long run, and she had changed soooo much. She is forever afraid of me. Hides all the time. She won’t even come near me when I bring food. No longer sleeps in my bed, it’s like a totally different bunny.
  Will she stay like this forever now? What should I do now? It’s like a lost my pet all together ?. She wants nothing to do with me anymore ??? before, she would attack my boyfriend if he came near me, and now she seems to just dislike me.

  She could be traumatized by the experience, which is expected since it is an invasive operation. She should return back to normal, but the main concern is that these behaviors can also indicate a rabbit is in physical pain and distress.
  
  Is she eating, pooping, and peeing as usual, and how does her incision site look?
