Hello all.
I am quite new to this site so will give a brief introduction to the bunnies.
Matilda is approximately 7 months old and Kyle just over a year. We have had Matilda since she was 9 months old and Kyle for almost two months. Kyle came from a rescue centre and has been settling in whilst Matilda recovered from her spay.
I was lucky enough to find a woman linked to the rescue where Kyle came from who kindly offered to help with bonding.
We started on Wednesday in a small neutral space. It was not very encouraging, lots of fur pulling but over the last few days we have seen an improvement. Yesterday Matilda licked Kyle on his head and she was desperately waiting for him to reciprocate but when he does not she gets annoyed and frustrated bless her. Matilda then decided that humping him was the way forward much to Kyle’s horror!
Anyway we will be trying again tomorrow and tonight I am going to move their pens in to the same room and see if they can love each other through the bars! Any tips or ideas will be greatly appreciated.
I am beyond myself with excitement. I know that they will be so more happier together and that they need company. I am so lucky to blessed with these two amazing animals who enhance mine and my families lives every day I am also lucky to have met such a kind hearted rabbit lover who is willing to give up so much of her own time to help us.
Here are a couple of photos. It is lovely to see my bunnies so close together and enjoying each others company
