        Both my rabbits are fighting, well,
        Bonbon bites coco, and coco just takes it and never
        Ever fights back.

        Spaying is really costly rn.
        I have absolutley no money.
        I have 53$ in the bank.
        All vets in my area do rabbit spays from 300
        To 500$

        Can they bond without being spayed
        They are both female.
        Bons the predator and coco is the victim.

        Having her fur pulled out, and being bitten in the neck
        And bitten in general.

        Is there anything i can do besides spaying?
        Ive tried the neutral territory. Ive tried switching
        Their cages.

        Ive tried reinforcement with water, and holding down
        The aggressive rabbit when she attacks
        Nothing works?
        Please…help i dont want coco to die.

          SEPERATE THEM IMMEDIATELY.

            We told you in your last post to separate them. We warned you this could happen. Please keep them separate at all times. Bunnies can kill each other from fighting. They need to wait until they are spayed. They are hormonal. Nothing you do will make them get along.

              The only thing that will keep them safe is keeping them separated. They should be living in separate enclosures, and no time together at all. not even “play dates”. The solution here is very simple, if you don’t want them to kill each other, don’t give them the chance.

                Agree with the others. If you don’t have money to spay, then you don’t have money for emergency vet visit for surgeries or stitches.

                  We told you they were fighting last month and that you needed to separate them. I don’t know why you keep asking for advice when you don’t listen to it.
                  They need to be separated immediately. You cannot bond them when they’re not spayed. From their behaviour now that should be obvious.

                  I literally cannot believe you think this might kill Coco, but you’re still leaving them together.

                    Honestly, if you dont have money for proper care, you shouldnt have that animal. You cannot afford care for one, so you should not have either. Youre not even willing to listen to advice when we say “Coco might be killed, you need to separate them!” youre go-to is still “but I want them together, is the only option for Coco to die?” Like children, you should not have animals you cannot properly afford and care for. Rehoming them or giving them to a rabbit shelter is honestly your best option for their lives and safety.

                      I’ve just noticed that you said you are “holding down” the rabbit when it attacks. Please please don’t do this. Your just adding fuel to the fire, this bunny is already defensive and territorial and your just going to be giving more of a reason for it to want to defend itself. My goodness please separate. The bunny is only doing what it’s natural instincts and hormones are telling it to do. You need to be the responsible pet owner and protect these bunnies in any way you can. You’ve only recently got this new bunny and without sounding rude you shouldn’t have done so if you knew full well you can’t afford to spay even one of them. I’m sorry but your looking for answers that people are unable to give you because the only way is separation. God forbid one of these bunnies turns out to be male

                        Hold up, you said you tried switching cages. So, they are seperate?

                          Just out of curiosity but does anyone ever follow up with these kinds of posts in private?

                            to be 100% honest, no. Not when multiple people have said the same thing multiple times on the same person’s thread who has posted about the same topic numerous time. it’s not worth the time and energy to respond to someone who is not receptive to what is being said.

                              A resounding no from me as well. This person didn’t even bother to reply to their own thread. I’m not gonna go out of my way to rear someone who simply doesn’t care.
