What can happen when you give a terrified bunny a pal of its own :-)

Wise Old Thumper
My Mavis (the black bunny below) was apparently so terrified when she arrived, having been dumped in a box, at a rescue, that she used to sit with her head in the corner of her hutch and just shake uncontrollably :( She gradually improved with time but was always a very nervy bunny who would get very anxious when being cleaned out and would run and hide or completely freeze whenever anyone approached her. She was so scared that the rescue were terrified that bonding her would send her into stasis.

Enter Dudley, a bereaved little lad. Soft, gentle and dopey, who just wants a companion. What a difference a friend can make :)

Please don't write off a terrified bun as being unbondable or problematic, they can be very rewarding and as Mavis shows, can come on leaps and bounds when they are bonded with the right companion :love:

Wow. I didn't read it properly and just assumed the grey bun was the nervous one. :shock: What a change. :thumb:
 
Its amazing how another bunny can calm a nervous bunny, my charlie was very nervous and now he is so friendly and will come up to me to see if I have food for him:roll::lol:

Beautiful Buns:love::love:
 
Thats wonderful. My old man Sunshine has had 2 companions that were very nervous and what a difference my old man has made to them. Our new girl just adores him. He does his usual bonding by constantly putting his head under hers. Soppy Sunshine.
 
Awwwwwwww!!!! :love: :love: :love: xxx

What else can I say! Those videos are just wonderful. Bless 'em both - I feel quite choked up.....

Can you add oral Baytril to a treat/nuggets and let the rabbit take it that way?
