I have decided to let Dylan go and live with my sister and her family.
As you may know I saved Dylan from a woman that wanted rid of him even if that meant killing him! :shock: but I never intended to have two males and having the garden spilt means both Dylan and Arthur are only having half what they could. The hope was that they'd bond but as Dylan is growing up he is getting more and more territorial. They no longer sit at the fence together but rather Dylan see's Arthur as a threat. Arthur is a very sensitive chap and seems stressed when Dylan is near, like he can't relax because he has to protect his territory. I know alot of this is down to Dylan's hormones and that he will calm down when neutered but at the moment Arthur still isn't 100% after having GI statis and I owe it to him to have a calm life.
Anyway I was talking to my sister today about it and she confessed that she adores Dylan and would love to have him. I think it will be best all round. He is booked in on Tuesday to be neutered and then when he is fully recovered he will be bonded with a rescue girly. He is a lucky chap as my sister has a fully walled 150ft garden :shock: plus a good sturdy 6x8ft shed that her hubby is converting.
The hope is that Arthur may even find himself a nice laid back bunny wife in need of a forever home.
At least this way I know Dylan has an acceptional home and I'll be able to see him every weekend. In some ways its exciting because I can see Dylan settled with a wifebun and potentially get one for Arthur, but it will be sad to not have him here. I wish the garden was bigger so I could get them a wife each and keep all 4 but I have to think whats best for the bunnies and that just wouldn't be an option.
