Hi everyone!
Firstly, I feel really bad because I've been MIA for some months now. The truth is that I've been so busy with running my own business, I've let a lot of things slip, including spending time chatting to you lovely people on the forum <3 Hoping that I can get on here more regularly in the future to keep up to date with everyone. I hope that you (and your bunnies of course!) are all doing well.
I'm wondering if anyone can advise me on potentially adopting from Blue Cross? For those of you who know my bunnies, I have a trio, Hamilton, Beatrice, and the quite recently introduced Jellybean (who was given to us by a tradesman working on our house last December). They tolerate each other, but Jellybean is a bully and poor Beatrice can not relax around her, even when they're metres away from each other. Hamilton has also neglected Bea in favour of Jellybean, which is a shame because they used to be besties and now Beatrice has no buddy to snuggle with
My proposed plan is to split the shed/run in two and find Jellybean a new mate. I've seen a single male bunny on Blue Cross about 1/2 an hour away from me, and he's a similar age to Jellybean, which is ideal. My question is, can you take your female bun over there to bond them before adopting, to check that they're a suitable match? I think I remember Cuthbert&Dillon talking about this process, but it may have been the RSPCA rather than the Blue Cross?
I had really hoped that my buns would all become friends eventually so it wouldn't come to this, but I can't stand to see little Beatrice so lonely and on edge.
Any advice is much appreciated, thank you guys! <3
