As I continue to read the posts here, I realize that I'm a lucky bunny mom, just as I'm a lucky human mom.
From the posts, it is my understanding that bunnies, especially males, are hard to bond, changing food or hay can make a bunny not want to eat, bunnies can take a long time to be ok with being picked up, and taking one of a bonded pair to the vet can break a bond.
My buns bonded so immediately and completely that I ended up adopting both. They have taken very well to food changes. They were able to be picked up when I got them, though Groucho does prefer not to be picked up until he actually is, then he snuggles. I can even coo their nails easily. I had no trouble with an overnight vet stay breaking a bond. I am definitely a lucky bunny mom.
