Hi everyone! I was hoping you could help me! The story is quite long so I will try and keep it brief :-
Adopted cliff and Miranda, a bonded pair and the rescue bonded them with Noel who recently lost his partner.
All was fine for 3 months then Miranda and Noel fell out a fight occurred with an injury and we decided to seperate
We kept cliff and Miranda and created a new set up area with a run and shed
We got Noel a new friend Mindy
About a month ago Noel and Mindy started chasing and had a little fight which seem to set off cliff and Miranda on a chase
We establish they could see eachother from the set ups so blocked of the view
This helped Mindy and Noel and they are perfectly fine
A week later cliff and Miranda out of no where had a fight where I got injured seperating them
I tried to put them back again but another fight
We decided to re bond in the house and then slowly put them in the shed then gave them access to shed and run
Things were improving and we went away this weekend so had to take them to boarding for a few days
We brought them home yday and I feel we have taken a few steps back
Cliff is acting up again ... he chases Miranda - seems a bit aggressive (this is what he was like before we started rebonding and things were improving and things seemed calmer and more settled )
I feel we have taken a huge step back
Has this happened to anyone else? I keep hating spring time causes his behaviour - he’s eating pooing seems fine but he seems to be the instigator ... I’m also feeling I have no relationship with the bunnies I clean them and get out of their as I’m scared I’ll set them
Off - i don’t see them as much as I’m just worried constantly !
Help
