Spaying isn't all-so-crucial if you can't affordit, although it may decrease chances of developing uterine cancer, evenher temper and keep her from getting pregnant (if you wanted to househer with an unaltered male.

Here is a link to the House RabbitSociety's vet referral page. You can try calling thte ones listed foryour area. Try calling the vets in the phone book. Ask them if theydeal with rabbits and how knowledgable they are. Hope this helps.

thank you to everyone who replied to my question about my babbers i greatly appreciate your input.....

i found a vet that costs only 95.00 dollars to have my rabbit spayedbut she has not treated very many rabbits so i'm not sure if i shouldtrust her or not. is there anything specific i should ask the vet thatwould tell me beyond a doubt that she could do a good job with mybabbers?

You might try your local humane society. They generally offer low income discounts for spaying and neutering.
