Why should rabbits be neutered?

Question

Why should rabbits be neutered?

Answer 1

well if people don't want their rabbit to have babies then they get them fixed. rabbits have A LOT of bunnies at one time and sometimes you can't find a home for all of them so then people don't want to keep the babies.

Answer 2

So you don't get baby rabbits...? Isn't that the reason anything would be neutered?

Plus, for some reason, they seem to multiply like rabbits...

Answer 3

Actually all pets should be neutered so they are protected from many harmful things that can effect the body. Rabbits if you don't neuter them they will breed many times, and you will end up with many babies. They will not stop breeding, unless you spay and neuter them. Plus breeding the same female rabbit can cause problems, the female will become tired and may get heart attacks in the future. Spaying and neutering is a way to keep your pets protected from diseases and cancers.

Answer 4

The guy above me is really sick.

No animal should to be honest... Would you like to be neutered unwillingly?

Answer 5

They multiply way too fast!  Especially when you keep males and females in the same cages.  It's actually better to keep males and females separated.

Answer 6

they're much much prolific..

Answer 7

Neutering is beneficial to you and the rabbit as it usually helps to prevent territorial behaviors (like spraying urine or mood changes) and also prevents certain kinds of cancers.

Also, when bonding two rabbits, usually a neutered male and spayed female make the best couple and get along the best. So if you're ever considering a friend for your rabbit, it is a good way, again, to prevent territorial behavior and also prevent unwanted litters.

Answer 8

Because they makes lots of babies very quickly.  Hence the phrase " they multiply like rabbits"!

Bunnies are hard to give away, except to your local pet shop, which most likely will sell them for snake food.

Please get your pet neutered.  Do some searches and you'll find you can get a low-cost neutering certificate, but even without it, neutering costs way less than spaying because it's less invasive.  Make some calls to local pet hospitals or, of course, your vet.

Good luck!

Answer 9

Because rabbit balls in a light cream sauce are really tasty.

Oh, I'm "really sick"...  Animal testicles are eaten frequently and many consider them to be a delicacy.  

From Wiki..."Animelles is the culinary term for a type of offal, the testicles of animals, especially young rams, when used as food. They are skinned and usually soaked in cold water for two to three hours before preparation. They used to be much in vogue in France, Spain, Portugal, and Italy but their popularity declined considerably in recent years. However in the U.S. they became popular as an Italian delicacy known as Lamb Fries, and in the mid-western U.S., more specifically around Southern Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri, buffalo, bull or boar testicles are known as Rocky Mountain oysters.

A French recipe for "Lamb Fries" (animelles de moutons frites) is as follows: Animelles are marinated in tarragon vinegar, aromatic herbs (parsley, bay leaf, and thyme) and a chopped onion for an hour. Then, they are drained and sprinkled with lemon juice, floured with wheat flour and fried in butter and garnished with parsley."  

Other animals testicles are eaten even including turkeys.
