Neutering

[Two_Wheeks]

Hello!

My partner and I have been discussing a few things, and one thing to come up was the subject of getting our (not-so) little Keith neutered. He is currently living happily with Gibson, who turns 5 next month, so we're trying to be mentally prepared for the day when perhaps Gibson isn't around anymore.

What would a good age be for Keith to undergo neutering? He is 3 months now. There's no rush of course, as he's well bonded. It would just make it easier in the future to be able to house him with sows perhaps (and I could have more than 2 that way!).

We would probably prefer to take him to the Cat and Rabbit clinic in Northampton, as we have confidence in them over our cat/dog vet when it comes to guineas!

Any advice or opinions welcome

We’ve had three, four month old piggies neutered at Cat and Rabbit Clinic, this week and have two more, of a similar age, booked in next week. All sailed through the op and came home, behaving as if nothing had happened. I think around four months is the perfect age x

Micah was neutered at 3-4 months by a very good vet.
He came through with just a minor blip and recovered well.
It was fairly urgent that he had piggy company having been a bullied baby and I had 3 sows for him to join.

Good for you thinking and planning ahead.
