Ok.....This is the link to a question I had, and Angieluv gave me a great idea.

I still want to try to get Roscoe and Suzi in the living room. Just to be able to play, binky and visit the family. (not permeantly ) And also to be able to see Daisy and Rascal in a nice, friendly way.

So....I'm gonna (probably on a weekend) set up a X-pen for Roscoe. I only have one pen but I have a big cage for Suzi. I will also seperate Daisy and Rascal so they don't fight. Then I"ll bringthem in the living room for a short period of time. And we'll see what happpens.

If it's good experience I'll keep doing it....but if Roscoe flips out, I won't do it anymore. I'll give up. I don't wanna stress my bunnies. Roscoeflipped outthe worst when I tried to move their cages in the living room the first time. So....

I'll update when I try this and let you know what happens I'll probably do it this wkend or next.

Nail trims went really well :thumbup

I love my bunnies :inlove:

Awww..... lucky you, since both Shades and Baci has been visiting the vet b/c of their dental problem, the vet trim them while they are there. It's Cappucino that will inflict harm on us~ bunny scratches all over our arms and neck! She's a fighter.

Bunny Bonding:

I put Roscoe and Suzi in the living room today. I put Roscoe in the x-pen and Suzi in the extra cage. I left Daisy and Rascal together in their cage but that ended up being a mistakecause after10 minutes or so, Rascal started biting Daisy and chasing her. So I seperated them too.

Roscoe did really great today!! He didn't act out or anything. WooHoo!! Suzi was kinda skittish, more than usual. She was just trying to smell around.

But today went really well. I left them together in the living room for about 35 minutes. The whole time Rascal had this disapproving look. LOl. No one was able to lay down, and relaxexcept Daisy. Daisy was the calmiest and sleeping.

So...I'm gonna keep taking Roscoe and Suzi out into the living room. So all the buns get use to each other. Seems like the males are being the more complicated, which doesn't surprise me. But as long as things go well, I'm gonna keep trying.



My goal is to get Roscoe and Suzi in the living room to play. With no fighting. :bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance:

I am glad I checked cuz I love how your living room looks with all those cages in ha ha ha and all your pics u have posted...love the sleepy ones...adorable

 

[SweetSassy]

Denise- LOl. My living room is small so yes, it's packed with cages so I can bond. I haven't done it though since the first day cause Rascal has not been feeling well. He has gasor something.(I treated him)He's just acting different. But I'm keeping an eye on him. I don't know if he got too stressed from the other bunnies or what.



I don't get all my notifications either. So I just check my acct.

 

[Fancy77]

Thanks....if he's not acting better soon, I'll probably take him for a check-up, to be on the safe side.

hows rascal doing?

 

[SweetSassy]

I think he's doing better. I don't know if he got stressed from the rabbit bonding or what. I'm trying to decide if I want to do it again or just call it quits I so want my bunnies to get along. Just to able to play in the same room, ya know. But it just seems like it stresses someone out too much when I try to do it. And it's usually one of the males.



He's eating and drinking fine. And going to the bathroom so I didn't have to him to the vet. Thats a good thing

 

[Fancy77]

OH good, so happy to hear things r better!!

I know. I just don't want to make anyone physically ill, if thats what happened to Rascal. I may try again in another week or so. I'm still thinking about it. Thanks.
