Hello.
We have 2 seven month old male rabbits that were bonded, and both were neutered yesterday. The vet advised us to keep them apart last night but that it should be ok the put them together today. We did this and one of them won’t let the other one near him, and keeps running off. The one trying to get to the other one is not being aggressive though. In order not to damage their wounds we have therefore separated them again, but are worried that this will break the bond. They are in cages next to each other. The one that is running puts his nose through the bars, but when the other one comes close, he just bolts away from him.
I suppose it is early days, and they are probably a bit sore, but both re eating, pooping and peeing ok. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Franky.
