I know there are a few of you with kitties and bunnies on here. It is interesting to hear how other people have got on with them.
I used to have a lovely bunny called Rascal who has unfortunately gone over the bridge but before he did, my kitties and him were best buddies!
I didn't need to separate them ever, the would wash each other and snuggle up all the time! He died when Arty was a baby. We miss him :(

Pixie does like to make friends with all animals though!

Would love for my two to be like that.
I get the impression cats and buns are a lot like cats and greyhounds. Sometimes it works out beautifully and other times not. I've tried my two together a few times and it just isn't safe. Mig will ignore Memphis but Memphis just will not stop stalking then when too close Mig flips and chases. Even side by side whilst being handled Mig will be ok but Memphis will lick, lick, lick then out comes those teeth ( please note neither one has ever had the chance to hurt the other). Even the claws come out and he tries to claw Mig gently .... He always ended up with a paw full of loose hair.
I don't know if this is correct but I assume rabbits are a natural prey for cats. Even though Mig is as big as Memphis, little old Memphis seem to only think mmmmm dinner when around him. They have been out together a number of times with very strict supervision, one time Mig escaped and without a care in the world, Memphis was absolutly fine. I know that given the opportunity Memphis would kill Mig purely as his instincts are just so strong.

Thanks for the lovely comments. I really miss him, it would be lovely to have a bunny again but I don't think it could ever work as well as it did with Rascal.
Rascal was about a year old when I adopted Pixie so she grew up with him. She always saw him as a big cuddly hot water bottle!

Lovely pics :Luv2: you would be able to find a rescue bun with a history with cats so it could work, i miss having a bun

I have bunny's too and have only ever had a problem with Harry in the start, he is the hunter of the group :naughty: Now he leaves them alone and they all get along fine.
Those pics are cute :Luv2:
