  Hello and good evening everyone i am new to this website and i have been looking for more tips on when i should i let my Bunny Jelly out to play with my 3 years old bunny name Fluffy. I got Fluffy when she was a little baby and i got Jelly when she was 3 months. Jelly is a holland lop and when i first got Jelly when she was 3 months, I put Jelly with Fluffy and they started to bond really well without fighting or anything and Fluffy took Jelly in as Jelly was her daughter. Fluffy have never gotten spayed yet. Ever since Jelly got spayed on December 9th 2016 Fluffy knew what had happen to Jelly and fluffy was always laying down right next to her on the other side of the cage next to Jelly. Fluffy always groom Jelly on the other side of the cage and when she does Jelly tries to nip her face. Fluffy and jelly are bonded ever since, but Fluffy havent been acting normal, she always stayed in one spot ever since Jelly got spayed and always laying down right next to her on the other side of the cage. And even though fluffy knows that Jelly will nip her when shes grooming Jelly on the other side of the cage, Fluffy still stays by her side no matter what. Im not sure if Fluffy is depressed or what, but all i know is that Fluffy havent been really active anymore. The point that im trying to get to is that when should i let Jelly out with Fluffy? I am sorry for the long introduction , but if someone can give me some pointers about Jelly after she got spayed would be helpful. I know that jelly should be confined in her cage/playpen for a week, but Jelly keeps trying to chew her way out of the playpen. Fluffy will start biting the cage from the other side trying to get Jelly out. I am worried that Fluffy and Jelly might go depressed because of them not being together. Fluffy and Jelly have all their toys need and Jelly i sleep with her in her little playpen and talk to her until i fall asleep every night ever since Jelly got spayed on December 9th 2016.
  
  Can you guys and girls give me tips on when Jelly should be let out her cage?
  
  Thanks much.

  It’s really best to have both rabbits spayed or neutered before you attempt bonding. Jelly and Fluffy were able to bond before since Jelly was so young, but it might be different now. You certainly want to make sure that Jelly is fully healed before she has any interaction with another rabbit anyway. You don’t want her stitches getting broken if a scuffle breaks out. Are you planning to spay Fluffy? That would greatly help with their permanent bonding.
