No, I bet it wasn’t!  Fingers crossed they like it.

Are they easy to clean?  I’m remembering a former forum leader who laid rubber flooring for her pair (one bun had a gimpy leg) and while it worked great for them, she did say it was a pain to clean. It was ridged so that could have been the main reason.

Oh yes, females do this too. Glad to hear your appointment is soon. I agree with Dana. Make sure (at the very least) you are sent home with adequate pain meds.

It’s Tuesday, that means more shelter bun pics! (Since my shift is Tuesdays :p )

Gizmo (the boy without incisors)! He is ridiculous. First bunny I’ve ever met in person that LIKES being held!

And Shale! I think he kinda looks like Bun Jovi but a different color! He is also very sweet! He came in with such bad ear…[Read more]

Thanks for filling out the template!

I wonder if this started up because you moved them to a new room? I notice you mention they were in one room mostly, and then moved? Or was this behavior happening all along?

New bonds are sometimes pretty sensitive to changes. Can you possibly move them back to the last location where they got along…[Read more]

Glad you have her booked! It is for the best!

Just to make sure you got this info from your vet: Be sure they send you home with pain meds and some critical care in case you need to syringe feed her a little. And she should NOT be fasted before the procedure!

that’s great to hear. 🙂

Super great!! happy to hear that!

Update: I just wanted to let everyone know that the trip went great! At first they were very stressed and wouldn’t eat but then they started eating there hay and veggies. Thank you so much for all of the advice! It helped me so much🙂

Thank you! This is great advice! I appreciate your valuable input! 😀 🙂

Did you allow the bunnies to “settle-in”?

yes – we supervised them 24/7 in a larger area pen after just over a month of increased dating. they did not chase or fight during this time, and after two weeks or so of being in there, we gradually expanded to the whole room, and now free roam. Now they are in another room, in a pen at night, and the…[Read more]

There is a template created by Dana that’s pinned on the Bonding forum section. It would be helpful to have that information to get a better sense of the situation and what the progress was over the month!

If there is bullying, especially leading Hero to stay in a corner, small space, not eat as much, etc, then it would be good to separate and…[Read more]

Hi both,

They are both spayed, bonded over about a month in a small space gradually expanding across another month after dates.

Should we separate them to protect Pumpkin…?

Keen to hear your advice

Yes! Her appointment is monday! Im really nervous but I know it’s what we need to do. I can tell how stressed out she is I feel bad

Oh not a problem! and yes I have, I thought foam tiles were not the best for my rabbits since one of mine is a chewer and would probably at some point soon chew it up, so I went with some tougher rubber utility tiles. I laid a couple down for the buns to walk on first to make sure they have traction, gave them some blankets in there too. There was…[Read more]

That’s a cool method, never heard of that before! Thanks!

At this point I’ve had 3 boys and 2 girls. All had pretty different personalities! Who knows what gendered personality traits I subconsciously projected on to them, but it seems like my females have been very gentle, loving, but perhaps less needy than the boys when it comes to begging for attention. Very much the queen of the castle. Bertha was…[Read more]

Yep, hormones are to blame! Are you planning to get her spayed?
