You put them together? You cannot just stick two rabbits together and hope for the best. They need to be properly bonded. And all involved need to be neutered and spayed before you can attempt to bond.

You need to separate them.

But when I put them together in the cage at night my boy tries to mount her alot and at the start she kind of ran off but eventually got use to it but now she makes a scared noise alot any time she senses he is going to try mount her and I get worried and quite annoyed at him too.. I doubt shes pregnant but if anyone knows what this means please tell me!

You’ve really answered your own question here. It means she is scared. It is exhausting trying to run away from a bigger rabbit all the time so now she just tries to hunker down and is making the noise out of fear.

I recommend you look into sourcing another enclosure. Either she have the cage and your other rabbit in cage or pen. There is no guarantee that they will bond after she is desexed. It can take some work to get them to that point. So, there needs to be 2 habitats for the interim or permanently if they do not bond.

Here is the sites information about Bonding. https://binkybunny.com/BUNNYINFO/tabid/53/CategoryID/9/PID/940/Default.aspx

They all have their own little personalities don’t they. So cute!!! It’s strange because I had my little man for a year and then decided to get him a little friend she at the time was not spayed and so I thought I would just see how they go if I slowly introduced them in a neutral spot. To this day they have not had one fight. They groom each other to the point where they lick each other’s tongues! And yes, she has now been spayed but like, not fighting at all. Just constant love. So to “seperate” them strait away doesn’t always apply to every situation, from my experience.. but in this case Aaron, I think that would be the best. Especially if it’s a sign of fear for her

I’ve also just taken in a little male I found on my front lawn a few days ago… pepper and Oreo took him under his wing, but since this morning they’ve had a little tiff so I have completely seperated them until I get him desexed. I just wanted to see if pepper would love him like he loved Oreo strait away and he did, for about 3 days. Groomed him. Wouldn’t leave his side. But for the best, I’ve seperated until he’s fixed. Then I’ll slowly start bonding them again they’re so beautiful. I love them!

With all due respect, you got lucky. Rabbits can be very territorial especially when hormones are present. Why risk fighting when you can separate them and bond after surgery. You’ve got nothing to lose that way.

I feel I’m very lucky… I was told that it would be okay and that’s why I did it.. and because I never had one issue I thought I’d try it with the rabbit I’ve just taken in.. he will be getting desexed in the next couple of weeks and then I’ll still keep them seperated, but close enough to smell each other before the bonding process

I only recently signed up to this forum and it’s fantastic. The help I’ve received today is wonderful.

Some have been able to bond a baby to a desexed young or adult rabbit. Ive read many accounts of that on here over the years.
There may be a bit of a hiccup when the baby in the duo starts to become hormonal, of course, so owners do need to be vigilant then.
It is recommended to have both rabbits desexed before commencing bonding to ensure best results, of course. But plenty of bonds have formed and survived one rabbit then going off to be desexed when of age.

In this case, I think this 8 week old rabbit is not responding well to the other rabbit at this point.

I understand and I’m glad you had no issues with your first pair I’m just saying it’s best to err on the side of caution as consequences can be awful.

Hello everyone I have a baby girl and she is about 2 months old. She came from a very hands on family as the children would always handle her, she is very loving. However when I try to get her to put her in the cage she runs off alot, I basically got her for my little boy rabbit to have a friend and I know they get lonely so thats why i did this. He is desexed also, but she is not yet as I feel she is still extremely young and half his size, I have to admit im not always around them as I get fairly busy sometimes too. But when I put them together in the cage at night my boy tries to mount her alot and at the start she kind of ran off but eventually got use to it but now she makes a scared noise alot any time she senses he is going to try mount her and I get worried and quite annoyed at him too.. I doubt shes pregnant but if anyone knows what this means please tell me! Ps – I only have 1 cage.

Shes terrified of him. Terrified rabbits will never bond to the rabbit they are terrified of. You need to completely separated them until two months after she is spayed. No excuses. Separate them now and wait the six+ months. She needs to completely forget that he exists, and if she cannot, they will never bond because she will always be scared of him like she is now. Note, that rabbits can die of stress.

She seems scared of him, so they need to be separated. Living in the same household they will always know the other bun is there -a rabbit has a keener sense of smell than a dog and a dog can smell one molecule of a substance. I’d separate, let them calm down, let the girl adapt to her new home, then get the de-sexings over with, then bond.

If you separate before blood has been drawn, the chances of them getting along in the future are much greater.

This is a process that can require lots of patience and quite some time.

That’s okay I appreciate everyone’s feedback. It’s nice to see how everyone cares and helps each other on giving tips to raise these little characters the best we can. hopefully this little bunny will be okay in the near future and can have a bond with the male eventually… rabbits are much happier with another little rabbit

Yes, you need different cages. But, you need her to forget about him also. They need to be in completely different rooms, completely out of sight of each other, until after she is spayed. She is terrified of him, and terrified buns will not bond to the bun they are terrified of. Grooming means nothing as shes not old enough for it to mean something; shes acting on instinct, not bonding. She needs to forget about him, and when she does she will also forget that she is scared of him. This is why they need to be completely out of sight of eachother.
