Hey guys!  Its been so long since Iv’e been on here.  But after many months of thinking I’ve decided that Hammer, Lucy, and Felix need to be a trio.  Now that classes are out for the summer, I should have time to do this.  I’m really hoping this works out prefectly, because 1. I’ve come to the conclusion that I do not have enough room for all these seperate living spaces.  And 2 Felix really really needs a friend.  He needs attention ALL the time and is really starting to bug me lol.  I thought it was great that he wanted to me with me 24/7 until he recently started keeping me up at night with his loud protest to be let out of his cage and be able to join me in bed.  He just really needs some frinds.

Some background for those who dont know/ forgot my buns.  Hammer is a male 3 year old bun I got as a baby bun.  He is a bossy husbun to Lucy, a 2 year old female bun I got for Hammer.  Hammer is the dominate bunny in their relationship, but I think Lucy just lets him think that.  He is dominate, however Lucy will only take so much calmly before she really shows him who is boss and his is the fur that gets tossed around the cage.  Felix is a female (who I thought was male) that I brought home from the daycare I work at.  Nobody knows how old he is, but the vets guess around 4 years old.  Also living in the room is Mae, a 8 year old female.  She will not be bonding to anyone, she was abused at her former home and is very sensitive, Im not convinced that she would make it through the bonding process.  Also living in my room is a cat named Bow, my newest edition to the gang making 10 total animals in my house.  I picked up Bow from a dirt road completely starved and in big trouble.  Unfortantly she is terrified of the other animals in the house, so she stays in the safety of my room with the bunnies.  I do not think she will cause any trouble with bonding, but if anyone thinks that the extra animal and smell will cause difficulties she can be relocated to the bathroom for a few months.

So far I have switched cages between Hammer and Lucy and Felix.  Hammer and Lucy are still together in Felixs cage, and Felix is in theirs.  I am switching cages each night and Felix loves it for some reason.  He binkies like crazy, he is so funny.  Hammer and Lucy however are going south and I suspect their bond wont last to long. I think ill be adding a third bonding cage in he middle of the room soon because I think I’ll have to spilt them up before they hurt eachother.  In a few hours I’m taking Hammer and Felix for a stressful car ride and trip to petsmart to get pellets.  Hammer and Felix have met before and have done well.  Hammer has given many kisses, but Felix has not returned the favor.

I think its worth noting that everybun is spayed or neutered and have been for awhile, so they have all waited the appropiate time after surgery and it is safe to mix Hammer with my two females with no risk of pregnancy and no unusual pre spay/neuter hormones.

Here is the cage set up right now.  The two cages on the left are the two that they will be switching to and from.  The one on the right is Mae’s.

Here is the happy couple, Hammer is the tan lovely, and Lucy is the gray cutie.

Here is Felix, my cuddle monster and hopefully soon to be added to Hammer and Lucy’s relationship.
