Hi, we have 2 adorable bunnies who we adopted last year from the RSPCA. They are approx 4 years old. Both are not overly fond of being touched but will appreciate a stroke behind the ears when they are eating.
I would like to get some advice on how to pick them up with the least trauma caused. We have to transport them to the vet every now and then, to be vaccinated and also because Holly has a tendency to suffer from digestive problems. Picking them up is stressful both for them and us.
They did not have the most brilliant start in life but we were hoping they would get more used to us with time and patience but they seem perfectly happy to keep their distance which also makes health checks impossible...
Any advice much appreciated
