Spaying my bunny

[PancakesxMarina]

So I got my bunny (pancakes) out of impulse and sympathy when she was probably less than a month old, you see I had old neighbors that were moving away to a no pets apartment so they were just going to release her at a park so I was like no you’re not I’ll take the bunny and I did and it has been the best decision of my life because I’ve had her for a good 9 months and surprisingly I love this little fur ball of joy, she’s energetic, mischievous(sometimes a good thing sometimes a bad thing), sweet, loving, funny…etc. Anyways it took me a while to save up money to be able to spay her with a good vet and now I have an appointment on October 7th for her to get spayed but I’ve read online that when a bunny gets neutered and or spayed their personality changes. I know spaying is for the best for pancakes due to all the problems they have in their reproductive system but I’m posting this to basically ask first hand if those who have spayed/neutered their rabbit(s) had their bunnies personalities change.

Just curious, thank you for your time!

I have two neutered males. The only changes I saw were diminished sexual and territorial behaviors like circling and nipping (bunny courtship) and poop and pee-marking.

I don’t think rabbits in general loose their personalites after being desexed. Most of what goes away is exaggerated aggression, territoriality and such.

Hi, I edited your post to delete your age.

I’ve had 2 boys neutered and 2 girls spayed and honestly don’t remember any personality change, other than no more humping. From my experience any change in personality was due to bunny getting older, not altering.
