  I did it! I took the plunge! I saw an adorable little bunny and she reminded me so much of Bam and I just could see them together. I got her this morning, her name is Sophie. The little boy was crying when she was handed off to me. I felt TERRIBLE but I reassured him I would take great care of Sophie. Bam was SO SO SO excited to see Sophie. He was so curious about her. Sophie didn’t really pay him much mind at first. 2 hours later though and she will not leave his side! She will explore the room and frequently go back to Bam and lounge or groom. I think this will be an easy bond! She’s 8 months old. and she’s just the sweetest little girl!

  She’s stunning, NBO! Those ears! And she has blue eyes like Bam. They sure will make the handsomest couple =)
  
  The little boy was crying, that’s sad.

  Yes indeed !! She looks adorable !!!! Oh wow, little boy crying, heartbreaking !! Did you give him this site’s address so he can check up on Sophie when he likes?
  Those transparent ears ! And yes, physically (! LOL !) if there ever was a girl meant for bam, it was she !
  
  Do rabbits show agression even different sides of the bars? And bam is enclosed on purpose while the visitor goes free in his territory?
  (A bit like getting your dog and his friend into your dog’s own car, get the visitor in first, then there’s not territorial protection from your own dog….)
  
  Just very cute indeed. Follow up piccies please. !! (I’ve no need to ask I know !)

  I have Sophie’s old owner on my Facebook and can send them up dates so the little boy can see her doing just fine they will have to share the same terriroty aka my living room for exercise because I don’t have much space. Her cage is right next to his and I’ve been just rotating opening the cages. They haven’t done any marking or shown any territorial behaviors so hopefully they bond easily. They seem to be quite dapper for one another

  OMG, I saw the pictures before I saw what you wrote. My first thought? She is the gray version of Bam! Turns out, that’s why you chose her! They look like a perfect match to me, I’m so happy you found her!

  I believe she’s a dutch/lop cross as her ears have a half floppy-Ness to them lol it’s so adorable. I’m so nervous the bond won’t take. I’m in the situation where the bond has to take or she will have to go back! So I feel pressured. And my husband is reluctant to have her spayed only for a bond to not take lol! Curse making such a whim decision on Sophie but I’m hopeful they’ll bond easily

  Isn’t there easy bonding (they do it all by themselves) and persistant bonding…. (it takes ages and sometimes needs neutral territory and then it’s OK….)?
  Can it actually happen that a girl and a boy never bond?…? ;o(

  Vienna all the scenarios you mentioned are certainly possibilities. It can go either way, really. Tomorrow morning I’m calling to book her spay. I’m so nervous but anxious to get this going

  Females do the honk thing too right? I hope she’s not in fact a HE! the only time I’ve heard this noise was when I got Harley. He was an over honker. He’d honk when exploring a new room. And he’d always tattle on my husband for leaving the bathroom door open because Harley would go in there, stomp his feet loudly, and HONK. And I knew instantly my husband left the bathroom door open! Awe I miss my Harley boy ugh, still not over Sally and Harleys disappearance, I guess hearing sophie honk reminded me of him.

  LOL Sophie to be renamed “Sophie-sex-change” !! – not sure about honking as Zouzou is a silent beast.
  An “over honker” – lmao !! Reading these posts does make me laugh !!!
