I had two outdoor rabbits.Mr Bunny and Violet Quite socialised and very happy living on the patio right close to the house, however, before christmas Mr Bunny died, and i have been very concerned about Violet and decided to bring her in to live in our conservatory as the weather has turned and I am thinking she needs company. However, she seems suddenly very, very timid. Whereas before she would tolerate a stroke and would allow herself to be picked up, she veers away when I feed her, she hides in her bed, and she is clearly miserable. My children were visiting over christmas and I worry that they may have inadvertently grabbed at her and picked her up. I am so worried about her, as I really want to rebuild the trust we had , but I think she may never let me near her again. my husband is a bit of an old stickler and will not allow her to be a house bun (although this is what I would like more than anything) so I need to find a way of socialising her all over again, before we bond her with a new partner and she goes back to live on the patio. Please , if anyone has any ideas as to how to do this, let me know. i am so worried she will never trust me again.Thank you.
