We recently picked up an un-neutered girl from a rabbit rescue to be company for our older neutered boy. We kept them apart for the first couple of days and then introduced them to each other in the garden.. they seem to have taken to each other really well and he hasn't left her side. She has displayed some nesting type behaviour (pulling fur out of her chest) but as he has been done for some time there is no chance (although he did have an attempt!).
Today she was not moving around as much as she had done previously and when we picked her up she seemed to be wet around her bits and a bit swollen and having not had girls before we were not sure what this was. We took her to the vets straight away and they said that her eyes were bright, however as she seemed to be a bit tender around the bladder and the damp was urine so it may be a slight infection and they have given us Baytril to put in the water... This was not that helpful really and we wondered if anyone could help. I was not sure if it was something to do with bonding or possibly phantom pregnancy..
She will be neutered soon but I did not want to stress her out as soon as she arrived in her new home. Any suggestions?
