Well, I have acquired a third rabbit, officially "on loan".
I have had Willow (F) and Charlie (M) since April and May last year, after five months they finally accepted each other and became a bonded pair. Today Harvey (M) arrived. He was kept in a cage of about 1 foot x 2 foot, so I offered to take him on holiday. Currently he is in quarantine, in a hutch with a permanently attached run. As Willow and Charlie are allowed free range in the garden, they soon discovered him.
The situation at the moment, day 1:
(a) Harvey is ecstatic. He is overwhelmed by the extra space he's got, jumping and binkying. He's a happy bunny.
(b) Charlie is annoyed. He kept circling around Harvey's run, trying to provoke him through the wire mesh. He's not a particularly happy bunny. I suspect he is trying to be protective of Willow and his status as the husbun.
(c) Strangely, Willow is not too bothered. Strangely because she is dominant in the relationship and Charlie tends to follow her. Also, she is quite a diva.
I hope it will work out one way or another.
