Mama Doe
Peter and Posy were rebonded 3 weeks ago. For those who dont remember they were originally bonded in July and they were very loved up almost immediately.
Then in early september Posys hormoned arrived and they had a fight. I separated them until she had been spayed and recovered. It was about 6 weeks in total.
All 4 of my buns went on a bonding holiday to bond them as a group but it didnt work so Peter and Posy were rebonded as a couple. They went back together quite happily.
Since coming home things havent been great. They are not loved up and every time I go out with food Peter will chase Posy and not in a nice way. Occassionally there is fur pulling and sometimes Posy will scream. I have checked her over and she has no wounds but it is very obviously distressing for her. Peter is very dominant over her which she doesnt like. He has to have everything first even my attension. Last nights scuffle started because I spoke to Posy first.
I can watch them from the window and its very calm when I'm not there although they are usually apart. Its getting to the point when I dont want to go see them incase my presence starts Peter off.
Will this improve? Should I give up on the bond? I really cant have 6 buns if they both need different partners.
