What to do first - rebond/vacc's

I'll try to keep my story short!

My 2 rabbits had to be separated as they are boy and girl, they are both now neutered, him about 6 weeks ago and her 2+ weeks ago. We are keen to get them back together but also they haven't had their vacc's yet. If I rebond say next weekend (if you don't think thats too soon?) would I need to leave it a bit before I do the vacc's, if so I assume I should vacc's first so how long should I then wait before rebonding and how soon in relation to her spay would be best to vaccs?

Obviously want to keep stress levels as low as poss (for me as well as them!) They were both Panacured before her neuter.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi there,

You'll need to wait another month or so to rebond them as the doe was only done about 2 weeks ago. It takes about 6 weeks for their hormones to settle. The rebond will go much more smoothly with 2 calm, hormone free buns.

It depends on the timing of your vaccs, when are they due? If not for a while I'd rebond them first and then take them both to be vacc at the same time. Bonded buns cope better with stress i.e. vet's visits than lone buns (generally).

Can we have pics please? Just FYI there's a forum rule that all posters must post bunny pics. Ok, just teasing but pics please, ;)
