I was planning on having one bunny for a while but that didn’t last long. Here’s the story: I have a sweet little dutch girl named Kya. She is a spayed two year old female. She is very playful and has some territorial issues. The second bunny is currently nameless. I rescued her from my mother after I couldn’t stand to see her mistreated anymore by my well intentioned, but ignorant mom. Being a teen I have minimum income so I have to work this problem out one step at a time. I found a rabbit vet for the new bunny who is afordable and recomended by the house rabbit society. The total of a basic exam and a spay would be $140. Not bad at all. However, I am also saving for an ex pen to give Kya (and now new bunny) more room. I am actually not sure as to this new bunnies gender (I’m fairly sure she’s a girl). I also don’t know it she’s fixed but she kind of acts it. She has no territorial issues, doesn’t spray, doesn’t pull fur or dig. She’s super mellow. So I decided to put housing above veteranary care this time. So I’m attempting to bond the two girls. After everything has calmed down (its Christmas too) and the two have hopefully learned to live in peace I will put all my energy into figuring out new bunny’s positive gender.

Okay. I’ve read the bonding journals and done some research so I decided to put the two in neutral territory. Wow, Kya is like half the size of the new bunny and she immediately attacked and whopped new bunny’s butt! I had never seen such anger. I immediately seperated the bunnies (with gloved hands) before Kya could do any real damage. She gave me quite the nip for interfering but I put new bunny out of reach and went to calm Kya. Everything seems normal now  and Kya is binkying about like the spaz she is.

Anyway, I could use some help with my next move. Any ideas or constructive critisizm is fine.
