Anyone else just love her rabbits' setup? It's so cute and homey 😌

This video couldnt have had better timing! I just got a rabbit yesterday as a companion for my other rabbit. Theyre in two different cages and seem very happy to see each other and they try to touch noses through the cages. The newest rabbit ( we’re going to call him Vans) has already done binkies the day we got him! I think theyre a perfect match for each other.

having a companion for ur rabbit is so important, my 2 bunnies are obsessed with each other 😊

I adopted a bonded pair (both female) thinking I would skip the bonding drama. But apparently they had some stuff they still needed to work out. I hadn’t done much research on bonding prior to adopting so I was kind of panicking. But I did some small space sessions, and limited their area for a while so they didn’t have as much to fight over. Now they’re doing much better! Thanks for getting this content out there! It’s important!

thank you. i sucsesfully bonded my 5 bunnies. (all rescued) Lottie, Luke, Latte, Appa, and Nova.

I got so lucky with bonding my 2 male rabbits (they're both rescues and neither are neutered, ones too old and ones too young) it literally took me an hour to bond them, just pushing off the older one when he tried to mount and eventually they just accepted each other :)

Thank you for mentioning how the bonding needs to be lead by rabbits! It took us around 4 months to bond our pair. We adopted a rabbit from a rescue for our territorial single free roam bunny and she hated the whole process, going from being free roam to being a small square pen with a stranger for some hours on end made her very annoyed at the rabbit and whenever it came to the bonding time she would be difficult to catch etc. We went against traditional recommendations and expanded the pen to half a room and then a whole room and it made her waaay less aggressive. There were still fights but less frequent and easier to break up. I think the more popular advice actually works for very few people to be honest! And it's also why I think so many rabbit owners are convinced their rabbit "can't be bonded"

Yaaaaaasss another video I binge this channel too often lol 😆

It sometimes just takes time for the 2 of them to understand each other even when they are obviously curious about each other from the beginning. My female rabbit is very dominant and plays rough, while my male rabbit is skittish. In the beginning, her grooming attempts were often mistaken as nips or bites that he ran away or fought back in anger or fear. Their bonding consisted of 1 week of living separately side by side, and took turns using the common area. Then 3 weeks of short supervised bonding sessions everyday. Then 2 more weeks of using common area together but still living separately when nobody could supervise them. Then finally I trusted them enough to not get into fights when I'm not looking. Rabbits learn from each other, my female rabbit mellows drastically after bonding, while my male rabbit shows his curious side more often. They still have little episodes of chasing sometimes when they bonded for over 2 years already, but they make up immediately after, so I just let them be.

I admire you for sticking with the slower bonding process & going at their pace💖

Thank you for this! I’ve had my first rabbit for 6 months now and I love him. Within the next few days I’m getting another rabbit(he is a rescue) and I’m nervous about bonding but your video made me feel a lot better!

I am taking care of my daughters bunnies while she is moving, and I cannot tell you how thankful I am for your videos! They’ve really helped keep the peace and sanity in my house as we adjust to 2 bunnies roaming around. Again, thank you so much for being upfront and honest in your videos. You’ve helped immensely

You have up the perfect bunny home, great job!

Your channel is so underated!!!! Such cute buns, send my love ❤

I love the style of this video! It was so informative, but casual. And I love the footage you included while you talk and I love the vibe the background music gives off!

Excellent video. Thank you on behalf of all buns who are being bonded.

I have 2 boy bunnies & they are having the same issues with hormones & challenges. Thanks for your help!

I had a brother/sister pair for 4 years and my girl passed suddenly to stasis. So I waited a couple months and then took my boy bunny dating a he loved a pair of sisters. They were just brought to my house 2 days ago and I’m working a bond between the 3. So, a pre bonded female pair (5 yrs old) and my 4 yr old boy. All neutered. Wish me luck. Enjoyed your video. Great info.

its so funny bc our smaller male who is almost blind is soo docile around humans but super territorial and aggressive with our larger male too lol

Omg! Exactly +!! Wish more people explained this! We git two males from the same litter. The mom and dad only had males. And everyone on YT and anywhere we read, said they needed a bunny friend. So we took two. Little did we know that they fight and are aggressive

Love your stuff. My male & female keep fighting so thank you for this.

I did 24/7 bonding for over 2 weeks and now have a male and female happily bonded for the past month. They clicked straight away but now I have a 3rd rabbit which I need to bond to my pair. It’s difficult breaking up the first bond to make a trio but I’m hoping they get on as a trio

Great video. I liked the subtle humor.

Your story is my story! Exactly. But I’m only two weeks and two days into bonding. I haven’t tried the 24/7 yet. Because I really like to sleep. So I hope things will work out a bit sooner than you have. Thank you so much for your advise!

My first rabbit I got her a friend and they immediately bonded and my first rabbit has passed leaving my other rabbit lonely and partly blind but now I have a new rabbit to hopefully befriend her.

I like two legged bunnies and four legged bunnies. 😁

Thank you for this video 🙌🏼 I'm about to get my 2 buns neutered on Monday, and I'm going to be researching bonding a lot over the next few months before I start trying

THANK YOU🥰🥰🥰 I’ve watched a LOT of Bonding videos. But Your Bonding Video resonates most with me and what I needed to hear as I have Twin Buns/Brothers that are currently separated due to territorial fightings. I’m encouraged by your video. Just pondering on when to resume and commit to the bonding process😬 They’re separated but it’s a peaceful existence at the moment. I’ll keep watching this video for inspiration😅😆 xo M

Do you have a video talking about where you buy all your bunny stuff?!?! LOVE LOVE your whole set up!! Looks like such a fun place for the Buns!😊

I just introduced 2 male bunnies successfully. It took them approx. 4 days, a lot of fur flying around and some biting but now they give kisses to each other 😊 dont give up

Hello! A friend of mine has great luck bonding bunnies at his rescue by taking them on a car ride together in the same crate.

Wow they’re so adorable

After getting my bunnies fixed RE BONDING has been a nightmare and my buns are from SAME LITTER grew up together 😩 weeks later and they still get moody and go at it. I wish the vet fixes them all together!!!

This was helpful thank you

Thank you so much for posting this video! I'm getting ready to get a 2nd bunny & I'm trying to learn everything I can! Your tips were very helpful!

Omg.. this gave me hope. My 2 females got in a scuffle and one got her ear bit. I felt scared they will never bond. I right now keep them separated but i would love to have them together eventually.

Thank you so much for your videos! I’m hopping to get a bunny or 2 soon ( if my parents allow it :/ ) so ur helping me so much

We just took our Phil speed dating today! Now we are fostering the bun he was the most compatible with. Not love at first sight, but there are some good signs. Hope it works out!

I was given a mother and daughter rabbit and they love each other

Thank you for this video the info is very useful to me

I have a boy and a girl, the girl is dominant the male isn't so I am pretty confident that they will bond well. They are both fixed and it's just at the 2 months after stage now so I'm ready to get things started soon! Excited and nervous lol

Nice setup

My rabbits fight soooo bad. I have 2 white buns and a Grey they are brothers. The two white buns get along but the Grey one is extremely territorial. The fighting started when hormones set in. I got them fixed and it didn't work. And I'm a mess and I lose it when they start fighting. I don't wanna give any of my bunnies up. 😞

Thank you, I have a female rabbit and she is female, we know. In the summer we get another rabbit, a male. And from the research I have now we realize we need a whole new play pen for him before he is neutered. Meaning we need have 3 or 4 square-meters play pens for them. But when they get to bond, thank you for this video💕

My sister has a bunny that is identical to your light colored bunny with the gray tail and ears. I wouldn't be able to tell them apart. Right now, I have 3 bonded sisters together. So far they are getting along with each other.. I hope it stays that way.

I got a rabbit a couple days ago and now I need to bond them they seem to get along well so far when they can see eachother but there is a barrier. It’s funny as my rabbit that I’ve had for awhile is buttercup while the new one is Franklin Theodore (my last name) Franky for short the age I named them is very different lol

I’m commenting this on multiple bunny videos. I hope someone sees this and can help. I have two female buns. One is a year old and one is 3. They are both lops and are both spayed. When I brought home the 1 year old she was 5months. They both got along great, would groom eachother and play. Neither of them were spayed at this time. But once we got the youngest spayed she started to get aggressive which we thought was odd. She started biting and nipping our other bun. So we separated them. Then I thought that getting my other bun spayed would help. But nope. It’s been 6months and I’ve tried everything!! Stress bonding, a neutral territory, giving them each others litter boxes, having them spend time in the other ones territory. Everything. As soon as they see each other their tails go up and they want to bite. Absolutely no hesitation they just want each other dead I swear! I’m not sure they can even be bonded! But they used to be so cute running around together and I want them to do that again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks girl 🐇🐇🐇🥰💝😇

Very informative and helpful video. Thanks for all the great tips! I recently acquired a teen aged rabbit from a niece who could not keep him due to an aggressive husky at her home. I've since adopted and fallen in love with this bunny who I affectionately renamed Cotton Ball (or Bon Bon lol). After a few weeks of getting to know this animal and sensing his need for more attention, I decided to get him a companion. Surely this would help ease boredom and enrich his overall life experience. It was then that I learnt of their strong territorial traits and capacity to fight with others of their own species. Whatever happened to all those endearing, sweet bunny vibes?! lol The companion I settled on was a younger rabbit (not yet named) and he has shown a totally different bunny side ever since. Needless to say, its been a journey and I've had to separate them on occasion but I've noticed that they seem a bit more relaxed around each other of late. They even snuggle and share the water and pellet bowls at the same time. Cotton has established dominance and also grooms his pal like a true big brother. However, I find myself observing them to ensure that there are no "accidents". There is a way that Cotton charges that I find intimidating far less for his younger mate. I even ordered a pet cam to spy during the day and night whenever I hear a strange sound. I keep them in an xpen open floor layout near our dining room with hidey boxes, a rug, large litter box and some wooden toys. I let them run around our backyard on mornings and evenings to graze and release all their zoomie energy. Its fun watching them do binkies. Adorable actually! I can fully understand why owners take bunnies on play dates to assess bonding and compatibility. Who knew these animals were so sensitive to their own kind and can even hold a grudge lol. Yes, I have been given the cold shoulder as well lol I find that truly amazing and almost hilarious. But I do love these animals and find life to be so much worthwhile with them in it. No regrets.

Hi

I had two original Holland lops six months old who right off attacked the ten week and five month old new introducction. The five month and ten week wa alive first sight but my six month Olds won't stop tying attack the others

I am in this same situation except with my guinea pigs, this is all true for guinea pigs to

I’ve recently rescued two rabbits, initially believed to be females that then started fighting, despite growing up for the last 5 months together they started fighting, so I booked them into the vet to get spayed which later determined they were both males, I’ve had them separate for the last week prior surgery but have been sharing a room separated by a cage so they can get used to each other again. Today I put them together for the first time as they were laid flopping next to each other separated by the cage but then instantly started chasing and biting each other. I’m completely new to the bonding and rabbit ownership so any advice would be greatly appreciated

thanks!

I have 3 bunnys

I have bonded my mini lop doe Blueberry with another mini lop, and I wish I didn't bother bonding her with another rabbit. We had such a wonderful relationship with her, and that's why we thought she also needed to have a relationship with her own kind. She always looked so joyful. However, we saw a big change in her personality after the bond. She just became a follower, and it's very sad to see. I'm not going to separate them, but I just wanted to send a warning because all you hear about is its good for the bunny.

I’m trying to bond my two boys :( I currently having them living side my side they have been for maybe a month? They both get freee roam time separately but I’m so scared to try and have a play date! 😫

Be glad you didn’t end up with two Does…. I’ve found as well as everyone I have ever talked to…Two females together is a death sentence There will be blood….. Most likely. Does are crazy full of Hormones and way more territorial than the bucks. In every pairing relationship with a Buck and Doe, Does are almost Always Dominate. I love my Bucks because they are laid back and chill compared to the Does I’ve had. My bonding went over very smoothly with Eden and Mia. (Eden is a boy, yep I got tricked as well!) You don’t need to get both neutered for bonding to work….for baby rabbits. Eden was 1 year old and Mia was 8 weeks when I started bonding. Babies are more likely to be submissive because they don’t have hormones swamping them…yet. They aren’t concerned over territory and are more in la la land with the other bunny and new surroundings. Eden was honestly like a second Mother to Mia. They loved eachother after Eden established Dominance a few times. (None violent). This can also go very south as well. If you have an aggressive Rabbit with a baby this is pretty bad. Baby bunnies are pretty bad at reading other bunnos warnings since it’s never been an issue for them before. They also will have a harder time running. They can’t fight back either, they simply don’t know how.

Hello there!!

Im really struggling with my two boys. I don't know when I need to give up... This most recent setback led to stitches :(

What if the bonding process needs a lot of time and you cant leave them alone together, everyone says its important not to seperate them once the process started..?

I really like rabbits and b****** when I can jump chop yeah alright let's go ahead and tell us🐰

I have three and one doesn't get along with the other two at all and I mean it BC he opened BOTH of their noses by biting them

I used to have four rabbits, two pairs of siblings, each one male and female and bonding them was easy compared to this. But a few years ago, one girl died because she had an abzess that moved her jaw. After that, the group was broken, the other boy chased the brother (he is the slightly younger male) of the girl who had died and he wouldn't ever stop. It has been a traumatic experience for the younger one (they were all three years at that point and been together most of their lives) and even now, more than two years later, whenever he just smells one of the siblings, he starts to panic. This is why we gave up trying to rebond them. My older ones are now living with me and I bonded them with another pair (expected two females, found out to late its one male one female) and it worked quite fine until we had some breaking out problems and found out he was a boy and had to seperate them again.. Now three are bonded and I'll have to see how it goes as soon as its save to put the boy back in with the girls.

Glad to have discovered your videos! My 2 males bunnies were sweet before their balls dropped and now we're struggling to bond them. How long do you normally put them in the time out corner before you release them again?

if they keep fighting, means they prefer to be alone right? and we force them to "bond" so that they wont be "alone"?

Wow this was super helpful. I am a little nervous as I have a one year old De sexed female Mini Lop and she is rather dominant of the house as her territory. Sometimes/ rarely she can be dominant over my 4 year old daughter having too much of my attention which I have been working on. I am due to pick up a baby 12 week old female French Lop this Saturday and I am nervous of the bonding process. My rabbit Dellie is so kind and patient and has only snapped a handful of times over the whole year of having her. But she definitely sees me as mummy and loves mummy time and cuddles, I’m worried about how she will react with new baby french lop. Great video though. Thank you. This helps me feel more prepared and with some good tips to start with 🤍🙏

I wish I knew bunnies do better in pairs before I got mine. I want to get another bunny, but I'm scared of the price and the bonding process. Do you happen to know how much money it takes to care for two bunnies?

Can I bond rabbits with no spaying because I have enough money for food litter and stuff but before I got them I didn't think I needed to spay them and I can't afford the 1000 dollars to spay both of them

I have a female rabbit and I want to get another female but my current one will be two in a couple of days and I’m a little worried about the age difference there’s gonna be between the two.

so you never know if you can leave them alone?? sorry i’m gonna go on a vacation and im leaving my babies with my parents and im nervous about it

My rabbits name is cookie to

So my bunnies had a baby… how do I introduce the dad to the baby? So I treat them same as bunnies who don’t know each other ? The kit is male, while the dad is now neutered.

Your rabbits are so cute!

Someone please help me. I have two holland lops that are 6 months old girls and sisters. They have shown no signs of aggression towards each other until one of them starting chasing the other and trying to mount her, but the other runs away. Should I separate them even though they aren’t biting? I’m worried the might get more aggressive when I’m not around and I don’t want either getting hurt

I have been trying for 2 months. I am really frustrated. I have watched a ton of videos and I have run out of stuff to try. They just fight no matter what. Was about to give up but decided to watch this video and now maybe ill give em 1 more month. Today I tried the boxing ring thing as a last result in neutral territory and they just went into a series of nasty fights right away. I have a bad feeling about my situation. One of them is a lot bigger than the other and I really worry about the little guy getting hurt one day. Big guy is the aggressor 80% of the time. This might all just be way more trouble than it's worth

We've bonded two females, female with a male but now we have two males and it's been over a month and they still aren't boned. We've been debating whether to get a female rabbit, do you think that would help or be worse?

Long shot since it’s an old video, but I just picked up a rabbit on the side of the road (happy Easter!). I already have a 3 year old I got the same exact way. Gonna try to bond them but the new one is like 3 months old and I don’t think can be neutered yet. They’re both male too, my 3 year old is neutered. Is it safe to start bonding them or should I separate them until the new guy gets neutered?

You had them in a small space with a bowl of water. Is that all that should be in there or is ok to add their litter box?

Can you please clarify for me that when you say that your bunnies are fighting, are they just boxing, or doing the whole "spinning on their sides and trying to kill each other" kind of fighting? My housemate and i have 2 male rabbits who are now about 8 months old and we're trying to bond them slowly -- Your videos really help! But they get into the big spinning fights and we're not sure if putting them in a small space together to work it out is going to help or if the might still try to kill each other? Our Toffee and Sui Bian are both very dominant, unfortunately.

THANK YOU FOR THIS. I used to have two pairs of bunnies. A sibling duo (5years old), and a female duo (8 years old) that we kept separate from each other because the female alphas - Luna and Momo - did not get along with each other. But then my bun, Momo, passed last December and it was devastating to say the least. We wanted to bond her brother, Chibi, to my female duo so that he wouldn't be lonely, but it's been rough. At first it appeared successful, as Chibi submitted almost immediately to the other female alpha, Luna. But I made a mistake of becoming too eager and letting them have a bigger run space and they both got territorial and aggressive over the space- leading to a really scary fight. I've separated them since and have been hesitant to bond them, so I really needed to see this video. In the meantime, the three of them all live in the same room, with their pens right next to each other. I'll definitely do the bonding in pairs thing because I know who are the "problem" buns 🤣😅

I tried every single way that he just doesn't have a friend and I Love the buddy that I bought I'm too scared cuz my one rabbit starts working out his hair I'm so scared can you please help me I'm really sad and I really love bunny but if it means I just can't have him I'll sell him to a free roam home

Hi! I have 2 male they are already bonded and fixed, now I have a 3rd male 9 weeks old, should I wait till he’s fixed or I can start introducing him?

Just love your videos.i am in the same boat Bonding 3 yr old male lop year and8 mth old male both desexed. Goodo in the morning when I clean their divided room.and again sitting with them in the arvo ..or outside verandah while I stay there.an hour or so is as much as the older rabbit can take before he gets a look body language starts to change.do I will be patient. Thanks again for videos. Nice that we are in the same country

I wonder if you can help me I have a rescue bunny that I've had for about 5 years (Rascal) he was bonded to another rabbit but unfortunately that rabbit passed away last year. In the meantime I've been looking for another rescue rabbit to bond with him. I've found him (Jo JO) but he's only 10 weeks old so hasn't been neutered yet. They both live in an indoor enclosure in the garage so I split it in 2 so they can still see each other and sniff through the bars but they can't attack each other. In the evening I bring them inside for about 3 or 4 hours one because its nice and warm and 2 to spend some quality time with them grooming and stroking them. Anyway after an awfully long pre-amble my question is should I let them mix a bit (obviously under supervision) before he is neutered? All the videos say not too but it just seems a bit mean what do you think? Should I wait until after the neutering?

EARLYY

Wait. So them what do I do with my two male rabbits?

Could you please tell me if they sleep tgt at night or in a separated space? I'm planning on binding my buns but I'm not sure if they are allowed to stay tgt throughout the night or they r separated during the night and only let out to play with each other if supervised

Love this video, not sure if anyone has any tips but I have a new baby rabbit he is 8 weeks old and I have two girls who are now 2 years old ( both spayed) and already bonded. Is my little rabbit too young to start trying to bond with the other two.

If you have 3 and 2 of them aren't getting along, you cannot just take those 2 and bond them leaving the 3rd out. It will break their bond with the 3rd rabbit. Once bonded you cannot separate them at all. Even if one has to go to the vet, you have have to take them together. The set up is cute but my rabbits would jump right over it. Rabbits can jump several feet and will if they want freedom.

I need help, I had both rabbits fixed I have a male and female they get along just fine but my male humps my female which results in them spinning , do I leave them to fight it out ??? but break it if it gets worse , do I continue to put them together and pick up the male once he gets on her back. They don’t fight normally but humping results into the fights. Male is in a pen they groom through the bars but next to each other just won’t work

I have a bunny who is 1 now, his name is Dumle and I have only had him for 4 months. A week ago I took home a babybunny that is 9 weeks old. At first he didn’t even bother looking at her. Then he was very confused that he saw another rabbit… Then he just was jelous of her food cus it seemed like she always had food when he didn’t (i do not mean hay now…) So he started to try to get inside of the space I had built for her (I Use the same material as you do actually) he always got inside in some way. Now he can even jump over it and I have two on top of eachother the height is 70cm! So he learnt to jump that high… everytime he did that he scared the shit out of her. At first he just wanted to smell her but now it is like he want to show her this is his space and he growls at her. I am afraid he will kill her because I feel like he is vety intense and aggressiv and she is so tiny compared to him… They are the same breed but she is not even a teenager… I mean… I have a balcony where is like his little apartment… He have it all for himself and usually he is free roaming but now I have him there when I am sleeping or if I’m not at home… Now I feel like they never can bond and be together… I am scared 😫 Dumle is very hard to handle. He never wants to be pet even… So we are not best friends yet. We have made progress but we’re not there yet… :/

I have two bunnies that are both 4 years old, a female and a male. I got the male neutered as soon as I could but never neutered the female, I've been trying to bond them knowing it'll be difficult. they act kind to eachother but the female can get a lil angry. What should I do? Give up? Is it really impossible to ever bond them? Just wondering.

I already got a male rabbit 4 months ago, last week I got a female rabbit I have them separate for few days and let them meet to bond. Yesterday I found out the new rabbit jump over my other rabbit. I found the grooming each other super cute and sweet.I wonder if I should let them be together or wait for a little more they seem to like each other.

It took me 9 mounts for my rabbits to bond

Where did you get your wooden base thing?

where did you get those little white squares to block off stuff, i definitely need some!

So is getting them neuter the only answer to successfully bond male bunnies?

Tip; when bonding don't wash the carpet and let them hang out together if they're not bonded.🤬
