        I have 4 bunnies. 2 bunnies per habitat, each has their own separate floor.  These 2 habitats are both in our bun room and they are on opposite sides of the room facing each other. (I hope this makes sense!) 

        Basically, our buns have separate habitats, but share the entire bun room when we have them out. We usually have 2 out at a time, because all 4 is a disaster. 

        Ollie (m) & Winnie (f) are the OGs, they can be out together and get along just fine. Rex (m) has letterbox issues when he is out – he has accidents everywhere. These seem to be more frequent when his is out with Ollie (m), so we usually just have him out with Winnie (f). He still has accidents when she’s out, but not has many as with Ollie. And then there is Cookie (f). She has a spay coming up in January, so she has not been directly out with any of our other bunnies yet but is aware of them because she lives in the same room as them. When we hold Cookie, she frequently pees on us, and when she is out on her own, she has all kinds of accidents. I’m thinking this will get better with her spay. 

        Okay, so my questions are: HOW can I work on bonding these buns better? I feel like I made a mistake housing them all in the same bun room before they were bonded. Is there any coming back from this? 

        and 

        Could I try to bond Cookie with any of her siblings before she is spayed? Should I wait until after she’s spayed? Should she be separate from the rest of the gang until she is fixed? 

        I appreciate any other advice as I’m feeling quite overwhelmed. My goal is to be able to have all 4 bunnies hopping about together, with minimum potty accidents.

          I’m sorry, can’t offer any advice, but just wanted to say good luck with the bonding I’m going through a little hiccup with my two and I’m already feeling a bit overwhelmed, can’t imagine the stress with 4 (though I would love to have 4…maybe one day).
