The bunnies are having THEIR issues to work out, but I think a big issues is that my boyfriend and I are not bonding with the rabbit. We were not allowed to hold her or spend time with her at the rescue center. They sort of foisted her on us because she is a large breed and they are harder to adopt out and we have a large breed male.
We don't feel comfortable with her, or care for her personality. I feel rather childish but at the same time we didn't choose her, and if she is going to be a family member for at least ten years, it seems as if we should love her. I've had many many rabbits over the course of 4 decades and I do understand personalities etc.
I adopted my male because after interacting with him we both liked one another and I liked his personality. I just don't feel like this doe is ever going to fit in with our family.
We plan to take her back this weekend.
Any thoughts on this? Anyone else have this situation come up where the adopted rabbit was a bad fit with the family?
