We have just adopted 3 rabbits. They were born in the rescue centre so are used to handling and are very friendly. They are kept in the garden. All of the advice says that we should bond with our bunnies very slowly. We have had them for 6 days and we go into them at least 3 times a day. We always encourage them to come to us for feeding (they have a large walk in avery run with a hutch attached). They will tolerate us giving them a little stroke when they eat and will take the food from our hands. However, I know I need to be checking their bums and getting them used to me picking them up. I want to pick them up for checks, but then the advice is to take our time and let them come to us. Also, I do not want them to get unused to being handling. Has anyone got any advice? They spend most of their time in the hutch and only race around the run a few times a day. Thank you ... from a new mum who wants to the right thing!!!
