Ninchen Blog - 2009

Pearl groomed Cinnamon,
she groomed Klopfer,
she does't chase Nougat any more,
she is still bonded with Pepe.

Congratulations, Pearl, you won the good girl bonding contest!

Who will be the next bunny, that gets along with all the others.

I'm waiting for

You should try taking them all for a car ride. I guess the "scary situation" makes them cluster together and remember the safe feeling of the other rabbit. It makes them hate each other less (or so I'm told).

I love your blog tooo much!
I love it that you can tell the ENTIRE story with the smiley faces
I love Pepe's magic dandelion act!

Thank you so much for sharing so many wonderful pictures of your crew. Really made my day
Congratulations to Pearl on being a benevolent Queen; Now, if she'd only put the King in his place....

The kings nose is bleeding again.
Pepe won't accept the bully.

Thinking about taking king Cinnamon out of the group.
I have some nasty fighting pics.

 

[Ninchen]

Wanna see some fighting rabbits ?

They look so sweet and innocent.

Bonding rabbits is tough.

:craziness

BUT I saw Klopfer grooming Pearl!

@kherrmann3: I can‘t take them on a car ride.
First, I don‘t have a box big enough for all of them.
Second....I don‘t have a car!
I think it is too much stress now, anyway.

@NorthernAutumn: Thanks a lot! It is nice to know that I am not only "talking to myself."inkbouce:

Today Pearl built a nest. Of all times now. But the two girls are fine.
Once again bonding unspayed females works out easier for me than neutered guys. Strange.

But other bunny people (in Germany) told me, that males will fight harder at the beginning, but will stay bonded once a hierarchy is established.
The females don't always fight hard at first, but will have their problems with each other every spring and autumn.

Klopfer

 

[RexyRex]

You take the best pictures

I think all of your bunnies are adorable.....but......can I please have Klopfer?leaseplease:

I melt everytime I look at his pictures

 

[Ninchen]

Shall I put him in a shoe box and ship him to North Carolina ?:shock::biggrin2:


Pearl, the thief

 

[RexyRex]

I would catch a plane to Germany for that bunny :biggrin2:

Hey!! Klopfer=MINE!!

 

[Ninchen]

Still bonding.

Pearl groomed Nougat, well, she grooms all the other bunnys.


Klopfer is back to normal and chases Cinnamon around.
Even Pepe does‘nt want to provoke Klopfer.

Pearl, Nougat, Klopfer and Cinnamon are living together, becoming a group slowly.

Pepe is still alone most of the time. He even doesn‘t try to make friends with the girls.

I had to take Cinnamon out of the group.

He was chased a lot by Klopfer and Pepe.

The wound at his nose shows some pus!

He has lots of small scratches and bites all over his body.

Poor guy. It was a bad idea to bond a rabbit without incisors.

I really feel like a bad rabbit owner.:cry2

I took him in again.

Guess, what. He is sleeping in his little bed under my desk right now!

And now I begin to feel bad, because I cannot give him a spouse.

He and Pearl were a nice pair.

I hope that Pepe will get his wife back now.
But I saw Klopfer, Nougat and Pearl today...like a bonded trio.

Whatever I do is wrong.
:expressionless

 

[kherrmann3]

Whatever you do, it's up to the bunnies to figure out who is allowed in the group & who isn't. :hug:

 

[Ninchen]

We went to the vet in the morning.

(They recognize me with name and all, we have been there so often with our rabbits.:rollseyes)


Cinnamongot two injections, antibiotics and something anti-inflammatory.

We got metacam and traumeel.

The crust opened, while the vet cleaned it- it looksawful,an opening pea-sized filled with pus.

 

[missyscove]

Poor Cinnamon. I'm glad you're getting it cleaned up.

Beautiful pictures, also.
