I don’t know if anyone has done this yet, but I have two bonded rabbits who always snuggle and groom each other. It took about two weeks to bond them (both not fixed, male and female). Then a few month later I had to get Bunny spayed because she was the right age. I didn’t have to go through any rebonding process and I only had them separated for a week (although I have also read that you shouldn’t separate bonded pairs?). But, now it is time to get Clyde fixed because he’s of right age, but all I read is to keep them separated for a month because he can still get her pregnant, but she can’t get pregnant so I don’t know if that is necessary. Also I have read that you shouldn’t bond them before they are fixed, which it’s too late now lol so I don’t know if this means I may have to rebond them after his neuter. Anyone’s personal experience would be great!

Their hormones take a while to subside after desexing so their dynamic and relationship may change after being “fixed”. Depending on how they go, you may need to rebond if they have a fight for “top bun” again
I havent had any experience as my 2 were already desexed when I bonded them, but I am sure others have

Thank you to all of you guys for your replies! Sorry I was AWOL for a moment! I do appreciate it still! I have just been really busy. Turns out that Clyde is actually a lady! Lol so I kept them separated until after Clyde was all healed up and then they were still fighting with each other like pulling hair! Very stressful
so I though I would have to rebond them, and as soon as I started that process they started to groom each other and now I think their bond is even stronger than before!! It’s so adorable how inseparable they are from each other. Thank you again for your quick replies! I really appreciate being able to come to this forum with all my bunny questions!
