Maisy & Ben Neutering Post 10

Introducing... (two seperate stories, hopefully to become one)


Maisy





Admittedly an impluse buy from P@H (Pic above in the pet shop the day before we bought her)
10 months old now
My first rabbit
I love her more than I thought possible and look after her the best I can
She likes to 'flop' on the cool slabs on the fireplace
She plays with my dog (under constant supervision)
Atm is making nests out of anything possible






Ben




Just over 4 months old (I think)
Originally came as a pair with Frank
Given to us by the couple who bought them without a garden and couldn't live with them indoors
Overnight after being friends Ben attacked Frank and he had to be put down
Now Ben is alone and not so friendly
I still love him to pieces and have got over that fact that he attacked Frank
He bites, well nips me but I'm hopeful neutering will help?
He also licks me which I have heard means the total opposite to biting (I must just taste good)





So now... First step this week. I am going to get them both booked in at the vets this week for a preop check for spaying and neutering. I then hope after time for healing etc I will be able to bond them so they can live together happily however I am hesitant because of how brutal Ben was to Frank.

Would like to know what you think of my story, plans and ideas Thank you

Well, I can't really offer any practical advice unfortunatley, but I hope you manage to get them bonded and living happily ever after cos they're both beauties, and the joy of snuggle bunnies is immense

Wow, Maisy really is at home, she looks so laid back and happy!!
I'm sorry about Frank Hopefully when Ben has been done he'll fall in love with Maisy and it'll be like a perfect ending! *fingers crossed!*

Arent they adorable. xxxxxxxx

Aww they're both gorgeous, hopefully when Ben's been neutered then he'll calm down.

Beautiful rabbits, and your dog must be so well behaved!

Good luck for neutering and bonding, hopefully they will be pefect companions for eachother!

Jack (the dog) is well behaved I guess he can get a bit excitable around the rabbits but we just tell him 'nicely' I think he just loves her

Booked in for the pre-op check for Maisy and Ben on wednesday. I'm quite scared for the actual day of neutering though, don't know what to expect.

gorgeus i can't believe how much darker maisy has got from first photo

good luck to maisy and ben :wave:

I love these bunnies

Took them both to the vets last night and they have been booked in for neutering next wednesday.
I have no idea what to expect/do because this is my first time at having a rabbit done. Any tips?
I'm a little scared but excited because its a step forward to bonding them.

She was very pleased with Ben, he's in good health and weighs 1.89kg

Maisy is slightly overweight at 2.49kg (Ben is younger than her) so we are slowly reducing the amount of nuggets. Her teeth are also not perfectly straight and eating less nuggets and more hay will help this. Maisy also wriggled and kicked so she now has a 'WRIGGLEY - TOWEL WRAP!' comment on her form.

Also going on their weights do you argree they are both dwarf lops?
