Wise Old Thumper
I have a bonded pair of elderly rabbits nearly 12 and 13. The female, 12 year old, Faline has the past few weeks begun mounting and humping her husbun, Molly and generally behaving like an unspayed male.
She has some arthritis and Molly is blind so this sort of behavior is distressing to them both. Especially as she is pulling his fur out around his neck.
I have noticed when I pull her off him a penis like protrusion. I know females can have quite the bulge but I was wondering if an infection or something could cause it to become more pronounced? I have had them to my vet and she thought Faline was the male due to the penis looking thing , but other than a general health check and some advising increasing her pain meds she had no clue. She had some dirt in her ears so they were cleaned in case that was annoying her.
I have had to seperate them which, as they've been together most of their lives is pretty heart breaking.
Faline is spayed. Was spayed by my own vet. Has never had her genitals like this before that I'm aware of.

I don't know what else to try?
