Hi, please read and help (sorry its long)
I bonded Maisy and Ben (both neutered and bonded in neutral space.)
After eating a bit of hay there was a few signs of aggression, on an occasion I pulled them apart. 10 mins into the bond and there after there has been no serious fighting just abit of steady chasing. Both have groomed each other and have laid next to each other. Both totally flopped out and relaxed like I've never seen them do before throughout the bond.
Who is the dominant one?
Although both groom each other Maisy goes to Ben and puts her head down to be groomed and Maisy gets groomed lots more than Ben. But Ben is more or less constantly chasing Maisy trying to mount her. She just runs around until he gives up, she won't turn and snap at him. Also Ben will stamp whilst licking her and sometimes bite her whiskers.
Both are now in Bens hutch which has been cleaned and cleaned etc with vinegar after 36 hours of bonding. I've seen grooming but Maisy looks very dull and fed up with Ben keep chasing her. Will he stop?
Are they friends?
I don't know if they are bonded or not because they are fine with each other and don't fight but they are not totally inseperable, but am I being silly thinking they would be at this early stage?
Thank you in advance!!
