I just wondered if, in the odd exception, some rabbits just prefer human attention to the attention other rabbits can give.
Jamie and Sapphire are inseperable and prefer each other to me lol, I'm happy for them although I do miss my affectionate little boy... he still gives me little licks every now and then though
Kitt and Hollie bonded, of a sort, before Kitt had to have yet another operation. I've tried to get them back together a few times since his stitches have been removed but they're just not having any of it. Hollie seems to go for him every time, regardless of the territory being neutral or not. I tried bonding them in Kitts room thinking that it may give him a bit more confidence and stop Hollie lunging at him.. but it didn't work, she attacked him within me letting go of her and then went and pee'd in his litter tray and poop all over his cage. Kitt seems to be petrified of her too, he comes and hides behind us if she comes in the room.
I'm at a loss at what to do. Baring in mind the number of injuries and operations Kitt has had I'm a bit reluctant to move him outside when it gets warmer - and Hollie was adopted so I could have them both living together, but it's just not working out and Hawys, my partner thinks she'd prefer living outdoor and, seeing as she decides to mark her territory everywhere by weeing, - even after it's neutralised :roll: I don't blame Hawys for saying this.
Any suggestions? I'm no way getting rid of either of them, but I hate the fact that I have two single bunnies who just wont seem to bond. If they could be bonded and Hollie stopped weeing everywhere there'd be no problem in them living together as house bunnies, but I'm doubting this dominant trait would cease. I could be persuaded to move them both outdoors if they can bond, but only if Hawys buys me another Happy Hutch.. hehe
