bonding

Hi, I’m trying to bond a bonded pair (boy and girl) to another rabbit (girl) The boy in the bonded pair seems fine but the girl is pretty dominant How should I go about bonding them?

I am curious, what do u guys think about stress-bonding. Aka you out two rabbits that you are meant to bond in a carrier and u go for a drive? I have heard opinions that are against it and opinions that encourage u to do that. I havent used this method myself but i am just curious, as said. ...

Hello, I am having some issues with bonding my male rabbit to a new female rabbit I brought home on foster -to- adopt basis. My male rabbit is 4 years old, and the only time he has been around another rabbit was when he was born, so he's a bit body language illiterate. The female rabbit was...

I have a pretty small bun (M, 2.6 lbs) and we just got a bigger bun (F, 6.5 lbs) to be his friend. They are both neutered/spayed. We are in the pre-bonding stage and it was going well until we gave the bigger bun a bunny plushie that was the same size as my smaller bun. The big bun immediately...

This happened today after about a week of bonding sessions in all different types of environments and enclosure sizes. We ultimately decided that just letting both bunnies free roam (with the exception of the original bunny room for our first bunny) was the best way to hold bonding sessions. The...

I have a year and a half old French Lop, whom I brought home about two months ago. Some background on the bunny, she is a female french lop, who had lived in an isolated cage without socialization for her entire life before being brought home to me. She was living in terrible conditions, where...

i adopted a rabbit a little over two years ago, and since then, we've become the best of friends. i had always wanted to find him a companion because i knew that once covid restrictions would loosen up, i wouldn't have as much time with him. plus, it would just be nicer for him to have a special...

Hi. I’m in the process of bonding my rabbits. It all seemed to be going well. They groom each other, share food and water happily, sleep next to each other. However the younger one who is the dominant one doesn’t allow the other rabbit in the litter tray if she is in there. She bullies her away...

My bunny Cosmo I guess jumped over his pen in the other room because he was out and I hadn’t let him out for the day at this point. And when I opened the door he slipped through and out into the area where I was letting Stella my other bunny run. The two interacted for a moment and she tried to...

I just picked up my new bunny Cosmo, he's about five. And my current bunny who's a female Stella is about seven. I got him home and set his Carrier outside of her cage so they could see each other and then moved Cosmo into his pen. I let Stella out and she went to the enclosure Cosmo was in and...

Hi everyone, So I am rebonding my two male rabbits after needing to seperate them for about 2 weeks (Rory had GI Stasis and ear infection) and their bond got broken. I am beginning by putting them in a tall bin for about 5-15 minutes twice a day. I cover the bin so there is still open space for...

Hey everyone, so I have two 8-year-old lionhead rabbits (male, neutered) who were bonded, but the last month one of them (Rory) got GI stasis and a possible ear infection, so they had to be separated while Rory recovered since the other bunny (Brim) was more stressful that comforting for Rory...

Hi all! I have 2 neutered male lionheads (both 7-8 years old) who are semi-bonded in that one (Brim) still occassionally tries mounting, in which the other (Ro)will chase them off, but otherwise no fighting, they live and eat and cuddle together and groom eachother. Recently one of them (Ro)...

Hey there everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve posted… Georgia and Smokey’s surgeries went GREAT and they are totally bonded and happier than ever now. Today, life decided to throw us a little curve ball… my husband saw this guy in our back yard. I went outside and he came right up to me. He...

Hello, i recently just got a gorgeous lil bunny called maple. She is so sweet & chilled & loves cuddles which we love. i have 2 other rabbits who are bonded and are about 1.5 and have been together for almost that amount of time. the first night we put maple in a play pen in my other bunnies...

Hey guys, so my partner and I are moving in together and would really like to bond our bunnies, a spayed female and an unspayed male, together. Obviously i am aware that it’s usually risky to put an unspayed rabbit with a spayed one but i wanted to post this here since we have kind of an unusual...

Hey! Just seeking some advice regarding trios. The situation is this- someone reached out who already has 2 bunnies who are 13weeks old right now. They're interested in adopting a 3rd, but my next litters wont be ready to go until July. Is it best to go ahead and bond the 2 they have currently...

Hello, i have two rabbits, zuko (male, about 6 months) and Yuumi (female, about 1 year). They are both spayed/neutered. I’ve been bonding them since end of January. last week, I tried having them live together in a small area in my room. I was home for my 2 day weekend so I was able to keep a...

Hey there! I recently brought in a new rabbit, a female, not yet spayed and my male rabbit is going bananas. Actually they both are. Just looking for some insight or tips on how I might navigate this situation. I’ve had my rabbit Smokey for a few months not and he has an appoint for his neuter...

I'm trying to bond a neutered male and unspayed female. (I know that's not ideal, she's not quite old enough yet). So the female keeps putting her head under the male's butt or middle, sometimes putting her whole head under him and even out the other side! What does it mean?
