I have made a new rabbit friend at weight watchers and she has a netherland dwarf female not sure how old she is.
I am asking for advice because the rabbit Pepper is very aggresive towards her owner Laura and no one else in the household. Pepper charges at Lauras feet scratches with her front paws, goes for her hands when she is feeding her and has now started to bite. She is an indoor rabbit and gets free range in the evening.
When I met Laura about 6 wks ago and she told me about Pepper I advised her to get her speyed, which happened about two weeks ago. I have told Laura that it will take a while for Peppers hormones to disperse but she still keeps attacking her. She has now had to have stitches in her lip from the last attack and I am running out of advice to offer so just wondered if anyone else has any ideas please?? Laura has said if Pepper hasn't improved by Christmas she will have to think about getting rid of her
