Cordie has recently started pulling fur out from Raspberry's bum. It's not matted or dirty fur, so I'm assuming it's not part of grooming. At the same time, she's not doing it aggressively - not charging or trying to bite or lunging or anything.
I'm aware that I may have issues with the girls continuing to live together until they're both spayed, but is this a sign that they're going to fall out or could there be some other reson behind the fur pulling?
If they're going to fall out, how should I separate them? Split down the middle of their current cage? Two separate cages away from each other? How easy will it be to re-bond them after they're spayed? Easier if they keep close contact or will they remember each other? Or could it make it worse if they keep contact and fall out further?
I'm pretty sure they can both be spayed in the next couple of months - they're already bigger than Mango! But I don't want to risk keeping them together and having them hurt each other, or having them fall out in such a way that they can't be re-bonded..
