Bonding a blind rabbit

[XMissySJx]

..any tips? She's an easy bond, I've had her in pairs, trios, even a four at one point although I ended that because she was left out too much for my liking. She's a total sissy and has always been bottom of the hierarchy, but I am cautious about bonding her because now she has a hyper mature cataract in one eye, can only see faint shapes and light/dark but nothing really, and then she doesn't have a right eye at all.

Benji is very soppy, he's really friendly but also quite excitable.

Does anyone have any tips for when the bonding occurs? It's not yet, as she's still recovering post surgery.

I've bonded several blind rabbits. Some very elderly and frail. I'm afraid I use the same technique for all - my kitchen and litter trays, rugs and boxes etc. I always feel for the little blind one, but they know their own minds, and do seem to manage OK

Oh that's good. I've bonded many bunnies over the years, but never an elderly or blind bunny.
