I have my rabbit Tenshi. (He's a male,and most likely around a year or so) he's pretty even-tempered,and is hard to anger. He does well with strangers usually.
Then,there's Jamie. He's a 3 month old kitten,and he's new to the home.he's only been around for a short time,but he's gotten use to the place.
Jamie is very interested in Tenshi,and likes to sleep on top of his cage,and lick his face through the bars. Sometimes he runs up to the cage to get the rabbit's attention,and runs away,expecting Tenshi to chase him(althought the rabbit only sits there awkwardly in the cage,watching him).Tenshi isn't too crazy about the little tiny predator roaming around his place,but tolarates him to a point. He sniffs Jamie a lot,and doesn't like it when Jamie plays on top of his cage. (Once he repeatedly jumped on the cage,rolling and rattling it,and Tenshi gave him a warning nip.) For the most part though,he seems to have a neutral tolarace for the kitten.I haven't seen any aggressive signs aside from the nip.while Jamie wants the bunny to be his playmate.
I've seen a lot of cases where rabbits and cats have been friends,and since nothing has really soured their neutral relationship,I thought id give it a try. I know there's know sure way to make sure they become friends,and that they might not ever become friends.I also know that it might take a long time,especially with the age gap. But how do I kinda 'set the playing field' for them? How do I slowly get them accustomed to each other?
