I can’t see anything in these photos. What is the concern exactly? Are his eyes cloudy?

We just finished our fourth session. Less than a minute and Maxwell bit Snoopy above the nose again, and ripped out fur. :(.  Later, Snoopy actually tried to flop almost on Ruby and Maxwells heads and Maxwell bit him hard again. Didn’t see damage but Snoopy acted hurt for a minute.

I decided to continue, I should have been more diligent. They…[Read more]

So cute! She looks super comfortable lol

That makes sense. I wouldn’t want to separate them either in that case.

Not a bad idea but I think Bonnie would be very depressed if I separated her from Cooper. Their bond wasn’t totally broken, it’s just that with Myra in the room there was a lot of referred aggression and mounting from Coop so it wasn’t safe to keep them together. With that set-up one bun was in the same room but not perfectly side by side, and…[Read more]

It seems the same thing happened to mine. Pushing longer sessions seemed to make things deteriorate, even though they were never great to begin with. I thought about just stopping the foster to adopt and foster the new 3rd, but I didn’t have the heart lol.

Could you give Myra some time in the room with Cooper (seems like even being able to see…[Read more]

Thank you, this part “I tried fast tracking my 3 and now I’m trying very hard to take it slowwww, because I don’t have the stamina for long and or daily sessions now either.. keep my life balanced and they can slowly bond or not. ” is especially true. I had basically a month where I had time to work with them in longer sessions and it seemed lik…[Read more]

It’s definitely nothing you have done wrong! They aren’t ready yet, maybe Myra is still grieving and needs the space, or maybe the 3 just aren’t meant to be. It seems like trios don’t work out often and it’s understandable you can’t give up your entire life indefinitely to try and bond them all. I hope Cooper and Bonnie can be re-bonded quickly,…[Read more]

I did try that once (although in a small space not the larger room), and it went really bad! Maxwell kept going after Snoopy and I was holding him back almost the whole time while getting bit (gloves on). It seems like Ruby makes him feel more safe, and Maxwell definitely needs his space..  Also, Ruby will spend some time sleeping while those 2…[Read more]

So cute! She looks like a toy you have put away on the shelf, so organized! 😆

That does sound like some progress! I wonder if doing sessions with just the boys would help? I considered working with just the girls with mine, and might still do that if I resume trying for the trio.

Thank you Susanne <3

Yeah it’s tough because I had to separate Coop and Bonnie, and there isn’t a ton of space 3 pens to be in one room, and it’s difficult to let them exercise that way. But then I’m very sad to see Myra alone in the other room, while simultaneously being happy to have her back in the living room? Its hard to not feel like a…[Read more]

Welcome back!

That’s so adorable! Rabbits like elevated spots ehere they can get a good overview of the environment. Here she even has a roof over her head so birds of prey can’t see her from above 😃 She looks very happy and relaxed!

I’m glad she adapted so well!

I can post again, woo hooo!

That said, I won’t do a full detailed journal, but with my trio even though we had a good start, my original male kept biting the new guy. He would seem fine and relaxed then all of a sudden a really hard full pulling bite, and many times on the face, so it was really hard to stop. It happened pretty much every…[Read more]
