I have been trying to get Beauty and Shiny Things rebonded for a while now (over 1 month, maybe 2 or more months even). I let them out to run at the same time each day under supervission. They get along great for about 1-2hrs then start getting grumpy with eachother. The way that the first big goes is that Shiny Things will come down from her cage, hop around for awhile and then Beauty will come out (Beauty is more shy). Beauty will groom Shiny Things when Shiny Things asks for it. Beauty never gets groomed in return. They will both go into Beautys cage and hang out for a while, often both in the same 16qt litter box that Beauty uses as a bed. Shiny Things will find some of the hay that Beauty did not eat the night before and eat it, often carrying it out of te cage to munch. They hop around a bit often together. Then after about 1-2 hrs they decide that they do not like eachother. They will get in a little scuffle (enough to get me off the computer and look around). I am going brain dead on what happens after that. I think that I normally put them up at that point. That or Shiny Things will go up the ramp to her cage and just hang there and Beauty will be in her cage.
Note- They were both spayed a few moths ago and were bonded within 3 weeks of the spays. After they were bonded they lived together for at least 3 months very happily. It was just all of a sudden that they were not bonded. I travel with them 3hrs each week round trip in the car. While they were bonded they rode in a cat carrier together and were fine. They now make that same trip in a devided carrier.
Any help would be really appreciated. I am at a loss for what to do with them.
