I really don't know what to do about Crunchie and Jake, after Jake bit her, I did as you all suggested and cleaned her up everyday with salty water but took her to the vet anyway, just in case, they said to seperate them for a few days because it would irritate her wound if Jake humped her again.
So they've been seperated since, but now, Crunchie's wound is mostly healed and I know it's time to start bonding them again but I'm totally panicing about doing it, I couldn't bear to watch them get hurt.
To make things worse, I'm having one of those days where I miss Merlin, I keep looking at his pictures and crying, wishing he could come back and tell Crunchie that it'll be ok and that Jake wants to be her friend.
Everyone is telling me to give up, my sister says that when they draw blood it's like saying 'I hate you' but I don't think they've had enough time together.
To be honest, it's just the humping that Crunchie doesn't like so she fights back, I'm hoping that when Jake settles down, he won't do it as much and they can be friends.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
