New here,
I currently have a spayed 2 year old, HL female that I've had for a year now. She's pretty independent, just does her own thing when she's out. She will approach you for treats but other than that she seems to like being left alone. she has excellent potty habits. She let's me lay by her but if I get too close she'll move, she can be so petty LOL. My girl is free range except for the bedrooms. Caged at bedtime and when we're not home. Although she has free run of the house she mainly likes to hang out in the front room which is also where her cage is. She'll do her rounds around the house but always heads back to the front room.
Next week she's getting a brother and he's around 10 weeks old. I plan on keeping his cage in the same room as hers, just across the room from each other because it's my ONLY option at this time until we move next year. I will NOT be attempting to bond them until after he's been neutered and that won't take place until Dec/Jan sometime.
My thought process is, in these next few months it will give them time to get used to seeing/smelling each other. To be in each other's presence. I plan on getting him a playpen for when he's out.
Any tips and/or suggestions from anyone? Thank you in advance.
