Ralph and Ruby have been living together for 5 days now. I wouldn;t say they are in love, but they like having each other around. There's still quite a lot of fur pulling going on (only Ruby's) and I see bits of her fur all over the place where he's chased her and pulled it out. She eats very nervously because she knows he has monopoly over the food, but the way she scavenges it when he's not looking shows me that she wants to eat and she's prepared to be cheeky about it. She's certainly learnt to eat faster, that's for sure. That said, he is more snuggly than her and wants to be wherever she is, next to her.
I think if I hadn't known much about rabbit bonding (before I came on this site) I would have separated them already because it doesn't seem like a fair deal on her, but since I've been on here I've read that it's about persevering even when it gets tough.
So even though there is fur-pulling, food dominance and chasing, should I continue?
