I've had Tarka (my boy rabbit) for a few weeks now and had him neutered two weeks ago. Out of the blue yesterday, he lunged towards me and bit my leg (not very hard) and today he lunged forwards to bit my hand (again not very hard). He has lunged towards me before (in fact every morning when I...

thanx

There is so much talk about bonding. Is it usually a difficult thing to sort out, or are the majority of bunny bondings straightforward and easy? What exactly is the standard procedure and are there examples where the two bunnies just don't get on and you can't then keep the second one?

thanks guys

I have a four month old male rabbit who I am about to have neutered. I've been told to wait about a month before finding a female companion for him. What age female should I go for and does it matter if she is spayed or not. I want to find one from a rescue centre, and ask for their help with...

I've been asking lots of questions recently and thanks to everyone who has replied. I keep thinking of more questions so will just put them all here. 1. What are rabbits favourite fresh food treats. How much fruit/veg to I give my rabbit on top of his dry pellet food and hay. 2. My rabbit...

thanks for your replies

thanks for this. i'll make sure a shelter is in the run.

Have just booked my boy in for a myxi jab. He is 4 months old. Will he be unwell afterwards, how should I treat him when we get home. He is very new to me, so not completely happy about being handled. Am worried he will be distressed by the visit to the vet and will not like me anymore. How...

please could someone tell me - will my rabbit want to go out in its run today in the rain or would he rather stay in his hutch?

Thanks everyone for your advice about a second rabbit. It sounds like I need to find a spayed wife for my boy once he has been neutered. So my next question is where would the nearest rescue centre be to Walton on Thames Surrey?

thank you so much for all this good advice, which I will follow.

thanks for all the advice. So should I introduce a second bunny once my rabbit is older and neutered? What age do I neuter him and then when do I bring in another rabbit. When you say a rescue centre will bond them for me, what does this mean?

Someone recommended a bunny buddy on an earlier thread. I've looked on the internet for one but can't find any. Are there any other toys I can safely give my rabbit (soft toys and other types)?

If I decide to get a second rabbit as a companion for my male, unneutered, 8 week old rabbit, should I wait until I have had him neutered first before introducing a partner. Should both rabbits be neutered/spayed first before meeting?
