... For scaring mummy half to death fighting!
I let them free range the bedroom while I gave the pen a clean out. I usually do this but lola doesn't venture far from the pen - if leaving it at all. But on wednesday she must have felt brave and had a good run around with charlie eventually following him under the bed (somewhere she hasn't been before) the next minute they started chasing eachother but I couldn't see what was happening. Then charlie appeared with a mouth full of fur :?
I got some food to encourage lola out and scattered it in the pen like usual, they where fine for a minute and then both just launched at each other, holding onto each others back. I panicked and opened the pen, charlie came running out and I quickly closed it.
Lola carried on eating but charlie was so shaken up I sat on the bed with him to calm him (and myself) down before putting them both in their carrier together - I remember reading about bonding rabbits to put them in an enclosed space? And then took them downstairs and left them in a room. Well I don't knkw if this is the right thing to have done but it worked this time :thumb:
I got these pictures later in the day and following morning (excuse the mess - I don't think they like to have a tidy home :lol: )

She didn't appreciate me trying to get a picture of her flopped out :lol:

I'm thinking it was caused by new territory as they haven't been under the bed together (they might also have been able to smell joey as I have only hoovered under it, not done a thorough clean to neutralise it?) and/or spring fever? They had a little chase about last night but sorted it themselves apart from that they have been fine :? It was awful though, the clumps of fur hanging off eachother
