Since Badger died 4 weeks ago, my three remaining boys have fallen out. Rather Blackavar has fallen out with Slipper & Blueberry. As soon as he gets anywhere near them, they have a full on fight - kicking, scrabbling, fur flying and I've had to remove him.
I don't know what to do now. They all had a room to themselves - do I try & put a barricade down the middle to create two pens and Slipper & Blueberry in one half and Blackavar in the other? Blackavar seems quite happy on his own - he's very affectionate with me, but he once had three friends to play with. Then there's the problem of acquiring a friend for him.
Some of you will possibly remember all the trouble I had with rescuing - either I was too far away, someone beat me to it, bunny got sick & died before he came to me, bunny was taken away after two weeks as it was decided she needed an outdoor home instead and many more never even got back to me. I tried to adopt 10 bunnies in total & was unsuccessful in all of them - these were all different bunnies at different times & different rescues. Given the horrendous month I've had (Badger dying, car crash, Family crisis etc), it's hindered my recovery from severe depression & the constant falling in love with a bunny to then be disappointed, also took it's toll on me before all that. So, rightly or wrongly, I'm a bit reluctant to get on that emotional roller coaster. Plus I'm not entirely sure that if I split the room in half, I'd meet the minimum housing requirements & OH will not consider anything other than the bunnies having that one room and that took a lot of persuasion anyway.
I guess I need someone to tell me what to do about all this as I'm not doing so well at the moment and I'm the one out of the whole family whose doing the best! I'm desperately trying not to fall into a hole, my OH is already in a hole & I'm trying to help him out whilst not getting dragged in, but stuff in his life is also pulling him further in whilst trying to climb out of their own hole. Plus my family all hate him more than ever since the car accident & I'm a nervous wreck behind the wheel now.
This has gone in rabbit chat as I need help with what to do with my bunnies. Sadly, no one can help me with my life ATM, it's just explanation around the bunny issue why it's not as simple as it may be.
