Pet's info: Small Animal | Rabbit | Male | unneutered

Is there an age limit to when I can't neuter my bunny anymore, or does the age not matter?

Generally after a rabbit is six years old, the anesthetic and surgery become more risky, so I wouldn't do it then. If Gwieth Gray is over two years old, I'd recommend having a health check and blood work done before having neutering done. He should be neutered around 3.5 months of age, when his testicles have descended.
