Bo & Ani are officially Dating 
We started by 2 weeks ago putting their houses side by side, and switching their blankets around so they would get used to each others company.
Then last Thursday I had the bunies play outside. I had the X=Pen set up on the lawn with a cage top in it. Bo was insuide the cage top, Ani outside in the x-pen. After things went very well i removed the cage top and let the bunnies meet one on one.
Date two was in their soon to be new home, a pen i built. We did that Monday evening. All went well, Bo thumped alot, and wouldn't leave the litter pan.. untill i brought out the treats
Bo groomed Ani a bit and it was a sucessful evening, so each bunyn slept in the others house for the night.
Date Three..... (here where we actually have pictures)
I decided since they were doing so well we would have breakfast together. Bo seems a bit scared of Ani, and sticks to the safety of the litter pan which she has no problem hopping in with him for a snuggle or to hop around him. When Bo does leave the litter pan, when he decided to hop back in Ani ALWAYS wacks him in the butt with one of her paws.... Kinda like me slapping Ry's butt all the time... hhmmm i hope i didn't teach her that.
Anyways, here's what happend today;
Ani hoping 'over' Bo in the litter pan
Ani trying to get Bo's attention
Eating breakfast together
"I think you should groom me"
Bo grooming Ani
"What are you lookin at?"
I got out of the pen after they were doing so well, and cleaned their cages. I would check on them even couple minutes making sure everyone was happy.....
They were
The grooming is only a one way thing right now. And after grooming Ani was checking things out and sitting away from Bo, he was taking a nap in the litter pan. So both are back in their own cages today, side by side.
I'm glad to say we havn't had any real agression issues, just Ani grunting and slapping Bo's butt I think he knows who's in charge ..hehehe...
;D
