I have recently got in contact with a local rescue to enquire about adopting a beautiful rabbit as a companion for my male, Woody. After seeing how loving and affectionate he is to Wendy (his stuffed animal), I think it would be lovely for him to have a girlfriend.
So, the rescue has offered for me to take Woody to her to see how they get on. What would this involve? Would it just be a short introduction?
I would say my Woody is quite a territorial boy - especially over his shed/runs. Would this be a problem? I would probably say he is pretty rampant (even though neutered).
So, if they seem to get on at the rescue, what is the next step? I have done TONNES of research on it. Particularly, the various methods which can be used to introduce.
Is it generally agreed that the slow process of putting her in a run next to him is best? Also, what constitues a 'neutral' space for their meet? And how long will they need to stay in this neutral space?
Thank you! All advice greatfully appreciated.
