Thank you.

Nothing add just wanted to say WOW what a beautiful bunny!

Okay, so there are these transparent baseboard protectors on Amazon, and they’re really aesthetically pleasing. They’re made of silicone and they’re bendy so you can stick them on wall corners and baseboards you don’t want buns to chew!

(I can’t add pictures from this phone for some reason… sorry.)

Side by side living can definitely be a fine arrangement — some say that it is still beneficial to have the stimulation of being proximal to another rabbit, especially if there is no observed aggression.

oh okay then thank you tho! actually since they are living side by side,they are just fine by themselves,,,

Note that as “strangers” online, the most safe and prudent recommendations given will be to take the most cautious approach, since we are not physically witnessing nor interacting with your rabbits. Thus, I do recommend taking a complete break at this point.

Whether you decide to try bonding again in the future is your choice. As someone with two…[Read more]

Thank you & yes! He’s got a really boxy long snout 😆  Regardless he’s still super cute; The breeder I got him from also breeds New Zealand bunnies (for meat unfortunately) and the majority of the Netherland babies they are selling are majority white. Though, I don’t believe a black otter coat would be possible to achieve mixing those two…[Read more]

I’m not sure what I might do, I probably would try to separate them on Christmas day with a see-through clear plastic panel so they can at least see eachother when they are opening their presents. I might not do this, but instead if I see the slightest sign of aggression then I would separate them immediately. Either way, I will completely…[Read more]

or what should I do? what do you think?

well my buns aren’t injured that badly,,so I think I’ll try next month and start slowly..

“Show standards” for Netherland dwarfs (which are arguably arbitrarily decided) clocks a nethie at max 2.5lb, though in reality some nethies can be larger due to natural genetics.

Weight aside, he does like look a mix– his snout is longer than what I expect from a nethie and the ears are also longer than expected. It is not unusual for people to…[Read more]

I have a relative that lives in utah, and she rescued a 7 year old female dwarf bunny, but cannot take care of it since she has dogs. She suggested I take her because she is very affectionate and i am also looking for a partner for my 4 year old, male bunny (Harry). I live in the mountains of Colorado, so not far from utah (I  drive there all the…[Read more]

You are playing with “fire” by allowing them to interact when they are not bonded — they could get territorial/possessive over the presents and a potentially “cute” event could turn into a fight with injuries. It would be safer to split the presents and present them to each separately.

So, it’s really hard to say whether you should give up or not, because that’s kind of a personal choice.

If one rabbit was injured badly, then I would say you should probably give up. I also went and re-read your other thread, and these cases where bunnies are getting along fine for a while and then suddenly fight are pretty stressful for…[Read more]

I will spend more time with them today, tomorrow, on Christmas Eve, and definitely on Christmas and see how things go. If they get really aggresive and seem like they are fighting more than usual, then I would think of seperating them. But if they don’t fight on those days, I think I would seperate them a day or two after Christmas, just in case.

I can’t really say or predict that. I would hate to say “sure why not”, and then have them fight on Christmas Eve.
