Young Bun
Hey all!
As any of you who recognize me know, I have been looking forward to adopting some rabbits since I met my friend's rabbits. Unfortunately, I could not because of school dorm rules. However, my buddies and I now have a duplex, and I could get them... so I did! Their adoption names were Roger Rabbit and Dandelion May; however their new names are Tesla and Madam Curie, respectively. Tesla is about 1 year old, and Madam Curie is 2 years old. Both are very sweet, will come up to you for nose rubs, and completely litter trained. Their former owners must have loved them very much and made sure they were well socialized.
Sorry for the poor image quality. My camera sucks. I had to take SO many pictures before I got ones without red eye.
Tesla:
Madam Curie:
After giving them a few days to get acquainted with my room and seeing each other in opposing cages, I let them meet in the bathroom (they are both fixed, obviously). The first day was nothing but humping (on Tesla's part, Madam Curie has never mounted him nor bit him... she is definitely going to be the submissive bun). The next day, lots of running and hiding. Since I had never observed any fighting while they were together, I put them in a medium size cage together for better observation. Tesla is in love, and began to groom her. I have seen her only groom him only once, but it was very brief and I have not seen it since. Since then, she still only makes scared noises (kinda like grunting, but not really... definitely not screaming) whenever he approaches and tries to run. Regardless, here's the first "kiss":
I have to get ready for work. Talk to y'all later!

EDIT:
Here's the cage I'm eventually putting them in. It's in the process of construction right now.
