Hello! Little update with my buns Amelie and Hector - I already posted a couple of weeks ago so here's an update. Amelie and Hector are brother and sister but their bond broke after they were both castrasted. I tried some bunny dates but it didn't really work so I decided to do a bunny bonding marathon! They were together in a box for an hour and a half (a bit of fighting but afterwards they just ignored each other) and I gave them some food which was fine.
I've completely cleaned Hector's cage and they're both in there now (but they're in the lounge with us not in their normal bunny room so it's still in an unknown place for them). What I want to ask is that I put one litter box in the cage and at first Hector jumped straight in but after a bit of exploring they switched places and for around 20 minutes Amelie's been sitting comfortably in there and Hector's on the other side looking a bit lost! I've scattered hay everywhere so he can eat too. They're both just sitting there ignoring each other, but they are cleaning themselves and also both are sometimes thumping for no reason but I heard that's normal!
Sooo should I take the litter box out for now or leave it in so Hector can confront Amelie so they can share?! The litter box is also a bit small for both (they could both get in there if they squash a bit) which I didn't realise as they were separated for so long and now they've grown!
Thanks for reading
