Poppy and Mishmash met at the rescue on the 16th. They got on and came home on the 21st. Everything was fine, they were grooming and laying together.
Until yesterday! I was cleaning out the other rabbits and heard a scuffle, I split it up but Poppy had lost a lot of fur. I brought her in to my bedroom and sat with her on the bed then brought him in. Agagin everything was ok, they were in my room under my eagle eye for about 4 hours without a single problem. She humped his head a couple of times and he didn't bat an eyelash, and she was laying with him and grooming him.
So I Put them back in the shed, and stayed out there with them. Again no problems... grooming, sitting together etc.
So I left them overnight... big mistake!
I go out this morning and there's fur everywhere - all Poppy's, I called her and she came out of the little hutch.
I had to go to my sisters today so I brought her in again and she's been in my room all day. Mishmash is out in the shed alone.
So it looks like Mishmash is going to have to go back to the rescue
He's so gorgeous... not just the way he looks but he's so sweet too.
And I don't know what to do aboout Poppy.
I don't really understand what's gone wrong between them. She's not scared of him, they fight and she goes back for more. With Jack they never actually had a fight, he used to chase her and she'd run away terrified.
