Young Bun
These two are finally living together after several months. We are on day 4. There is no mounting and only occasional brief chasing. They touch noses and he frantically grooms her, but I have not seen her groom him. When I go to visit them, she is usually sitting in his cage and he is in hers. (The doors are always open into the x pen so they have access to more room, toys, litter boxes, water, etc.) I have not seen them sitting together for more than a brief second - she scampers away from him. When they are loose in the yard, they go their own way mostly, moving nearer together for short munching sessions and then hopping off again. He seems frustrated in their living space and is happy to be pet by the humans - he's cuddled on hubby's lap right now.
I was hoping for more of a love bond - can it still happen?
ETA: I just checked on them - making progress!! He was laying down and she was sitting an inch from his head, facing him.
