A friend for Dillon - sad update post 811.

Cavalo nero? We call it black tongues

Much better Dilly, well done. It definitely sounds like he has turned a corner but be nice to Susan please
 
YIPEE, got in from work and let Jess (dog) out into the garden for a wee, a small gry man zoomed past us to go out. I had to scoop him up quick as its dark out there. When Jess came in from her wee, both Jess and Dilly came straight into the kitchen for a treat, jess a piece of carrot and Dilly some rocket and a grape (the grape was my treat but I dropped it). I do hope he continues to improve.

I was thinking of you today, and if you hadn't posted I was going to send you a message!

Great news :D:wave:

Good boy, Dilly :thumb:
 
Once we are over this, is there a link or a good read for slow bonding please. I am away next week for my birthday and want to spend sometime increasing my knowledge on such things. I dont think I can cope with the idea of Dilly going back to the bonder (not her fault) I just want the best for the two of them please?

Are they separate now? Will Dilly and his friend be staying at home?
 
C'mon Dilly you utterly handsome rabbit. I'm pleased he is gaining some appetite. It just though, that he is very strong willed and deeply emotional rabbit.
I hope he continues to improve - and I hope you have a great birthday next week.
Sending more vibes for Dilly. Xx

I’m glad that he is feeling better :love: it is understandable that you don’t want him to go away again, here are some links that I found helpful when preparing and bonding

They are side by side, they can reach over the top of their houses to sniff each other but havent as yet. There is only chicken wire separating them. I have been swopping toys but not blankets or litter trays yet. I am waiting for Dilly to recover before doing anything.

These are the links I have given to people over the years, hoping something there might be useful :)
