Just like pet dogs and cats, pet rabbits need to be taken to a veterinarian for regular health checkups, or for illness or injury. In most cases, rabbits don’t need annual booster shots. If you have a pet rabbit, you should ask around for a veterinarian who has adequate knowledge and experience in dealing with rabbits.

Since rabbits are very prolific, it is highly recommended to have them spayed or neutered. This will prevent unwanted litters and decrease your pet’s risks of suffering from important health problems. Spaying and neutering can also help reduce or eliminate problem behaviors. Rabbits that are not spayed or neutered are prone to displaying sexually aggressive behavior, urine spraying or marking, mounting people, other pets, or objects, nipping, and excessive digging.

Suffice to say, a rabbit that has been spayed (females) or neutered (males) are more calm and relaxed and are able to enjoy social interactions with other rabbits and with their owners.
