hmmm..
i wonder if lys nips him...
That doesn't work for all bunnies. Giving some rabbits a small space doesn't give them much room to escape each other should they feel the need, and if they have a history of nipping or chasing it's best to give them more space with some places to hide. A relationship shouldn't be forced IMO and I find that with bunnies who are more difficult to bond than others giving them more room actually helps as they are less likely to feel threatened.
