Hi all,
So I have two female rabbits. A mini rex and a french lop. The Lop is about 8+ and the mini rex only 8 months old. Lucy - the rex is not spayed (yet). Penny the lop is spayed.
The girls are divided but are interested in each other. After Lucy is spayed (and rehabs for a good month), do you think it is a good idea to attempt to bond the ladies? I'd love to do it before but lets face it, an 8 month old unspayed bunny is too feisty - the first week penny was here Lucy already stood her ground and pooped as close as she could to the gate that separates them to mark her territory.
I am concerned with Penny's age. We took her in to give her a good retirement home. She is has energy and life, but she is an old bun nonetheless. Would it just be too devastating for my young one when Penny passes? They just seem so interested in each other!
