Hi :wave:
My friend has two boy buns, they're 18 months older than my two, cross breeds and father and son. I truly love my friend but she's a poor animal owner, she doesn't spay or neuter any of her animals, there have been three accidental litters of rabbits, one of cats, and in the last 10 years she's had over 30 rabbits, and all but these two have died.
I want to take the guys on. She's going to let me have them for free, and I want to bond them with my two girls asap as they're currently in a teeny 3ft hutch, but I don't have the funds for neutering currently, as I've just splashed out on a new hutch and huge run to add to the existing. (My girls aren't spayed as Jelly is still a little underweight and her vet advised I wait until she's a bit bigger to reduce chance of complications, so they're both scheduled in for later this year).
I've first got to get round the obstacle of convincing my parents (and help with that? haha), but I can't bare to watch these beautiful little boys suffer like this, nor do I want them to fill up already full shelters :? . If I could, I'd take on ALL their animals, they've got cats, dogs, birds, gerbils and rats all in spaces too small and that get little or no attention. Some people just shouldn't be pet owners. :evil:
So I was wondering if I could have some advice on bonding quads? And are there any charities that can help towards spaying/neutering for boy-buns (I know there are for cats and dogs)? And above all, what advice can you give me on taking on new guys, I sort of improvised with my other two, but I want to do this right, as they're a lot older and probably a bit more difficult, being boys :lol: (and having been mistreated).
Thank you
