Aaaah of course she won't, Caroline is lovely (if talkative!!)  Hindsight is a wonderful thing and I'm sure we've all got a whole heap of stuff we'd have done differently if we'd known more at the time - the thing is, you want to do what is best for your buns and that's what is important now  :)

Yes great idea i really wished i would have known more at the time I think the lady i got them from was desperate to shift them :( and told me that two girls would be better than two boys or a boy and a girl :( ...if I had of known..

Thanks so much for your help I really hope to get this all sorted out as i hate keeping them apart :(

Looking at your profile, are you near Royston??  If so, I'd recommend the Rabbit Residence Rescue which is near Royston www.rabbitresidence.org.uk  Caroline is a friend of mine and she's great at bonding (my Heather in the photos above came from her), although she does usually recommend male/female pairings - Hopefully though as it's a case that you already have the 2 rabbits, she'd be able to help in return for a donation - you might have to wait a few weeks before she's got space/time to help but I guess if you need to wait for them to be spayed anyway, that doesn't really matter.  Might be worth a try  :)

Yes I have to admit when one managed to get out of the run and into the others run they started fighting and i have never seen anything like it ..I never knew that they did that at rescue centres will have to ask if they can help !

Thanks

Thanks, they are all indeed gorgeous  :Luv:  The two lops are a pair, and the two littl'uns are a pair, I haven't tried them all together as they seem very happy in their pairs and I'm scared to rock the boat by trying it, especially as there is quite a size difference!

Best advice really is to wait until they are spayed and try again a few weeks later, must be on totally neutral space that neither of them view as theirs - bathrooms are often a good place.  Or, do what I usually do and take them to a rescue and ask them to do it for you!  It's quite scary watching rabbits bond so I prefer to give a rescue a donation and let them do it, as they are a lot more confident about it than I am!

Awww bless them, they look so adorable!! And poor little Munch and her snuffles :( One of my own pet buns also has pasteurella, she has it chronically and keeps on getting flare ups it's a right royal pain  :innocent:  At the moment she is on bisolvon to thin the mucus and help her to breathe, and terramycin, which having been round the houses, seems to be the best antibiotic to keep hers under control.   My vet has taught me to inject so at least I can treat her at home which makes a big difference! 

Here are my little angels (no idea how to make them thumbnail like yours so apologies if they're big...)

Harry (black) and Heather:




Dudley (left) and Santa (right):


Santa is my angelic little snuffly princess (yep, Santa is female!)


And here's what Sooty thinks about the whole thing  :evillaugh:

Yes Helen the very same!  Time flies, it was mid October so about 7 weeks ago now - he had a dental and all his back teeth taken out and has had a real renewed spring in his step ever since  ;D

I love bunnies  :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:  When I was a toddler my Mum caught me in the garden with my bucket and spade trying to dig up our recently departed bunny!

Sooty looks gorgeous too, I love the way his coat has a beautiful brown sheen in the sunlight.  Is Sooty the Sooty who had an op a few weeks ago?

...but of the lagamorph, not feline, variety ahahahahahahaa!  I'm fostering them until they are old enough to neuter and be rehomed.  Aren't they just scrummy!





And because this is a cat forum, here's a couple of pics of my beautiful boy Sooty:
