I'm totally pleased with these two.
Looks like someone's in looooooove.
Aww, thanks. They still seem happy. They push each other around a little (especially around food time) but I don't see fighting. I caught Quincy licking Beulah's ears a few times. I thought only one of the two would get groomed? Nice to see them sharing though. In all my time with Quincy, he'd never do more than lick my bed or the floor next to me. Beulah is perky again too. When I stopped giving them separate play times and had them share the room she'd often withdraw. Now she zooms, binkies, and rolls around on the floor. :-)
Just an update:
It's been a few weeks and they're still doing really well. Bonded bunnies are ridiculously cute! They seem to be good at taking care of each other, but I think Beulah is more in charge. That actually doesn't surprise me because she is definitely a diva, especially now that she's lost her fear of Quincy. She isn't afraid of throwing her larger weight around either!
It's so nice only having one cage taking up space (same mess though, just compacted ). One unexpected benefit is that they seem to eat less, so I'm buying less. They both are doing fine but when Beulah was alone she would just inhale the hay and I'd be constantly refilling the rack. I think with another bunny she's not as bored and finds better things to do than eat.
Thank you for helping me through this! I'm still surprised that it worked itself out!
Hi Battie,
Congrats on the bonding success!
I just saw the picture that you posted of Quincy and Beulah in the cage together - what do you have for flooring? Is it that peel linoleum stuff?
We have been wanting to change from rug to something a little less edible, and thought that what you were using looked perfect.
Thanks for your help! Your buns are beauties!
