This is a bit of a weird question - but has anyone ever had issues bonding with their own rabbit?
I have 3 that have now been bonded. However my original doe (Myrtle) I have had the longest, I have just never got along with. The only reason I feel it could be is her personality. It is one of the reasons that I have a group of bunnies, is because she hates people (she isn't aggressive).
Its hard to pin point the reason - she gets the same care as the others. However because of her personality I have never really been able to get to know her. She is one of these rabbits that come across as 'rude', very avoidant, never really seems loving, overly dramatic over everything, is a bit of a loner, but will at the same time push your buttons in a very naughty sense. I am not talking about your regular skittish bunny, its different to that. Despite my efforts to work on her confidents, she doesn't want to know. So I have over the years just let her get on with it and don't interact with her which she is happy about.
However I do feel my dislike is more focused towards her then the others. The truth is - her attitude stinks and has been enough to put me off Lionheads, but at the same time she stresses me out because of her behavior. I am not sure if you can get autism in rabbits or any other behavior issues - but she's defiantly not 'normal'. I have had many bunnies and she is defiantly unique!
