SteveTheRabbit
Young Bun
Im 14 years old about a month ago i rescues a lop eared bunny (Called Ivy) from someone who'd found her in a bin and couldnt care for her. Shes lovely, friendly and easy to handle. The vet said she can be spayed in a few months because she just got vaccinated. But i want them bonded by half term (3 weeks) So is it possible to bond them now?
Anyway, i have a big rex neutered male (Steve) . Hes about 3x her size.. so im a bit worried about the bond. Hes a really friendly rabbit, the friendliest i've ever met actually. Steve and my 7 guineapigs live in a 12 by 8 foot shed. Steve has 2 runs attached together because he got statis from eating the wood and its for his own safety! But today, i split the runs and put I cleaned one and put Ivy in it, giving steve a couple of her toys. It was fine at first, i sat in her cage with Ivy and then she went over to the split bit in the middle (its a run panel) and jumped up, putting her paw through the gap. Steve looked up, sniffed her and bit her paw. I was really worried and moved her away. But steve sort of sprinted to the same place she was staring at her. Steve is 2 and a month and Ivy is believed to be 2 or 3. Shes a TINY lop and looks like a baby you'd see in a pet shop. Steves been neutered for about 3 months.
Im going to try and bond them, so ideas?
Any ideas and help would be great. I had a very UNsuccesful bond about 2 years ago and that terrifies me and i dont want it to happen again. Please help!
