Is having a pet rabbit indoors unhealthy because of its urine feces and spraying can spaying or neutering a rabbit stop it from spraying is rabbit fur dangerous to humans to inhale or ingest?

Rabbits are no more harmful to human beings than cats are PLUS rabbits do not carry any diseases that can be transferred to humans. If done in time, just like with cats, neutering will prevent a male rabbit from spraying. However, just like cats, if a male rabbit has started spraying having him neutered will stop the spraying in 50% of the cases.

A cat spraying is an instinct that male cats have to mark their territory. Whatever they're spraying on, it means "this is mine".

It is also a way of attracting a mate.

She's probably in heat. I'd get her spayed either way. There are too many homeless cats in the world to be bringing more into it. Make sure you clean all the areas she's sprayed with an enzyme cleaner you can find at a pet store, or even after you get her spayed she'll keep doing it.
