Well you see this is where I'm confused dot com. She was boxing us for the first few days - and did the same at the rescue centre. But I've worked really intensely with Flo to build up a relationship and made progress. I believed deep down that Flo wasn't an agressive bunny. I believed she was hurting so much from the amount of upheaval in her young life. She was just striking out because she was being defensive. So I was extremely nervous about introducing her to Leo because he's a big old softee and only known one rabbit in his 6 years. And he was grieving and he's just had a dental so things weren't ideal. But I am stunned at how completely relaxed about it Flo has been. O knew deep down there was an absolutely loving bunny beneath the shield she had created.
I know I sound like a sort of spiritual sort of guy - not the normal rugged old spice sort of guy, but I believe deeply in emotional connections with animals and understanding how they feel about the world around them.
I do hope your bond goes well - Bodders is just an adorable little chap and I'm sure he will win Maples heart easily.
