After my lovely boy Bob died on friday morning his wife Esmerda spent the day lying next to Hann's run looking miserable, so that evening I moved them both into the summer house (hoovered and disinfected first as Hann had been in their a few weeks ago.)
Two days later there has been no fighting but no cuddling either. There has been lots of chasing and attempted humping by Esmerelda.
I was wondering if the space is too big for them and they perhaps need to be in a smaller space? Its about 18 ft by 10ft.
Was also thinking of trying the carrier in car trick but can't do that til tomorrow evening.
The other options were to move them into Esmerldas house (has been cleaned) or just to leave them to it for a few days longer in the summer house? I dont want to rush them.
Thank you for all your messages about Bob, although I am distraught that he is gone I am still glad that I did not listen to the original vet who wanted to PTS two months ago as i feel he had a happy last few weeks with me. I've put some photos of him here: http://forums.rabbitrehome.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=22279
