  My bunnies have officially moved in together today! I prebonded for about a month (lived next to each other for a month before). I did bonding sessions for a little over a week I think. Didn’t take much effort to get them to love each other. But now they can live happily together! 💘 It makes me happy that I brought home two rescues and can give them happy lives and a best friend. They love to groom each other, snuggle, and eat together. These are photos of them in the pen I set up today. When they got in they were chewing the cardboard together.

  Thanks princedorian! I think it was that they were housed next to each other for almost two months before starting bonding sessions. 6 weeks was to let them recover from the neuters. Then I let them see each other. I started prebonding a few days after and cage swapped morning and night. I used stunt doubles too.
  
  I also think their personalities are just good together. Muffin is super chill, and when Pinky “bugs” him, he doesn’t mind. Pinky can be wild cause he’s under two years old. He’s even landed on Muffin while jumping off my bed twice… Muffin doesn’t bite him or anything lol.
  
  I’d also like to say that the personalities at the shelter can be different from when you bring them home. The shelter told me Muffin didn’t like being pet much and was more scared of people. It was probably the change of environment that made him scared. He warmed up to me pretty quickly. He LOVES attention now. I think a good tip is trying to find out the personalities of the rabbits and see which ones go well together. But if you’ve already got rabbits you’re trying to bond, do lots of prebonding.

  I don’t have a 2nd bun, just Dorian. Yeah I think knowing the personality will be a big one as they have to get a long with Dorian and also be able to free roam. My original intentions was to adopt a pair, but well I met Dorian at the shelter and that was that. Thanks for the tips @Moonlightbunny66 !

  Yeah, princedorian, I know you just have the one! 😆 Just shared some tips since you said we should. 🙂 With covid going on, it’s difficult to adopt eh? When I adopted Pinky and Muffin I didn’t get to come see them at the shelter, just photos and videos. But I love them both!
  
  Are you still planning on a second bunny? They’re so hard to resist. 😆

  Hehe @Moonlightbunny66 they are definitely hard to resist lol. Thanks for the bonding tips!
  
  I’m going to be fostering another bun starting on the weekend, and likely bonding him with Esther so long as her health remains well. I’m planning on doing a lot of prebonding as well, both to help make it a smoother less stressful bond and to give more time to make sure both buns are in good health.
  
  The bun I’ll be fostering has been in foster homes for 2 years now! The poor guy! Weirdest thing is that he doesn’t have any health problems. I think it’s just that the rescue is quite small and had 3 litters of buns all around the same time, only a few months apart. They had at least 15 babies from all the litters! That’s a lot of buns!
