I heard a right racket at about 2am - worried in case Humbug's rats had escaped & were eating the bunnies, I ran downstairs to find Chaos In The Bunny Room.
My gorgeous sweet cute bunny boy was attacking each of his friends in turn. Cracker has a torn ear, Rosie has blood scratches down her back, Chocolate has a couple of bites on her face. I bathed everyone's cuts, - Flint has some fur missing, but nothing else (Thank God - he had an abscess earlier this year, & was quite ill from it). I had to separate him - into a cage in their section of the room - him & Chocolate were grooming through the bars this morning.
These were the buns that were 2 bonded pairs. I was mainly worried about Chocolate, she was hard to bond, but Chocolate, Cracker & Rosie get on great. Even Flint can usually be seen grooming all three.
I've taken all 4 to the vets - 3 have had anti-biotic jabs & will now be on a course of baytril. Chocolate's personality has turned around since she became part of the foursome - I think she actually likes me now & she's so confident & follows Flint everywhere. I don't know whether to split them up into pairs again, or try re-bonding.
Why does everything happen at once??? :roll:
