I need to get Mopsy neutered but when I have been looking at websites I keep reading about how there are so many vets out there that will sterilize rabbits but not really know what they are doing. If any of you here are from Mass, could you suggest a good vet. Or even a bad one that I should...

Somebody told me she just brought the rabbits to the corner of the Super Wal*Mart (i see a lot of people do that selling puppies) and she got rid of her bunnies in like 15 mins.. She had a gate thing to keep them in and everything. I might try that, but does anybody else have any ideas. I asked...
