  Please help? My gorgeous house bunny ‘Joe’ goes most of the time in his litter tray but the last few days has been flicking in the air and weeing at the same time! It goes everywhere!! Seems to be doing poo’s everywhere too? Does he need spaying… I have never had a boy bunny???

  Hey there, welcome to the board!
  
  It definitely sounds like Joe has reached the brimmings of sexual maturity and it’s time for the snip-snip!

  LOL Gross!
  
  Welcome!!
  
  Yup your bunny needs to be neutered. Can’t really change the behavior otherwise, it’s just marking and it’s natural. Do you have a rabbit vet yet? If you tell us what state/country your in, we could probably help you find one!!

  welcome to binky bunny sophiemillett!
  
  as other members have mentioned, it’s time to get him neutered.
  
  it’s very important to take him to a bunny knowledgeable vet, as many vets don’t know enough about rabbit care. If you let us know where you live, we can help you find a bunny vet in your area.
