[Okinawabunnymamma]

I emailed the Rabbit owners giving up thereRabbits...WELL 1 of the rabbits is a neutered male and is 2 years old.Now my question is would it be hard to bond a neutered and not neuteredmale bunnie?

I hope you don't mind - but I edited the subjectline (added the subtitle) so that folks who have experience withbonding will be sure to see it.

Well, there's no guarantee that any two bunnieswill get along. Males are less likely. Neuteringmakes it more likely, so neutering Zack would probably help.Aside from that, it depends on how they react to each other and howpatient you are. Would it be possible to have the two bunniesmeet for a trial "date" to see how they react to each other?Definately read up on bonding first though, so you know what you aredoing. Even if it goes well, you'll have to cage themseparately at least at first and possibly permanently if bondingdoesn't go well.

I bonded a neutered male with a non neuteredmale but that was only because the non neutered one was too young to beoperated on, and when he came of age I had him neutered immediately.

If you neuter the unneutered one before introducing them I think it would make it a lot easier for you.

Or it might work without neutering him, if it works like dogs and onesenses that the other is 'in charge' since he is intact and becomessubmissive.. but it depends entirely on their personalities.

Personally though I'd neuter the other male first.

i dont think they will get along, you can give it a try. Are you going to neuter the other one?
