Im wondering if its so hard to keep two females together or two males and they have to be spayed anyways. Why not choose male and a female? Or would that be the same situation?

In my experience it's better to pair a male & a female rabbit together. Never had a problem in 35 years of 'Wild Rabbits, Hoppin' 'round the house' 😉

THANK YOU❤️sending you love and gratitude 🐰I hope you are all well☺️

This is an amazing video, so much advice, I hope your bunnies are well and still best friends 🥰

Thank you. This is exactly the project I am taking on. I have never done refinishing so this was very helpful. I also have a white staircase that has had multiple layers of white paint and we went to strip it down to the wood and stain it. We are also going to use ironspindles. Your video is very helpful.

I think we might have to steal your idea of a play area under the stairs - I really like how yours turned out!

We have two bunnies we are trying to bond. One is a female holland lop and the other is a female lion head. We have been doing table bonding, and the lop is grooming the lion head, but then she will start to mount. Any ideas to stop this? And will the lion head groom the lop eventually?

Our rabbits are going through the same stage and your video is very detail and helpful for me. one of the best bonding video I've watched! Thank you for making this!

If you had put cling film over the paint stripper it would have worked better.

Not all bunnies will groom each other and sometimes just one will groom. But this doesn’t mean they’re not bonded.

Amazing perseverance you have. I think you have cracked the code.

After 5 years of sister bunny ownership, I am struggling to rebond since June 2023. It is now Nov 2023. I have always been successful in rebonding them within a matter of days or weeks. This video has really helped me with knowing I need to be leaving them for longer in the smaller spaces. It just feels so wrong to keep them I a small space but I know it is for their good. They're indoor bunnies and my little angels. I'm on the verge of giving them to a pro bonder not far from us for 1 week but just want to try one last time myself. Your video is the best I've watched all week on this topic. Thank u

I wish there was some kind of hack posted for clean up or to keep the place clean while doing all this.

Wonderful! One of the best bonding vids I’ve watched so far thank you so much!

How did you go about giving them water when in the small tub 247. I want to try this method but without water I cant do it 247. Id want to split them up here and there for a little bit to have water

Okay thanks for this... My problem is a rather difficult one.. Mom and Dad are fine. She had babies, and we took in 2 of the little ones. Now the issue is that both mom and dad doesn't care whether they were their little ones, it's snapping and nipping at them. Mum and dad are fixed, little ones still need to be fixed. I have a feeling bonding the 2 small ones with mum and dad, is going to be very very difficult.. any advice on this?

It looks really beautiful. You've done an excellent job. I'm watching at 1.30 ish am. I'm trying to stay quiet but your music interludes are louder than your commentary so I'm turning it up and down a lot, lol. Thank you though, very insightful. X

I think you're doing fantastic. Keep doing and learning, and teaching. Good on you love. X

Thank you. I've chalk paint on walls and want to take it off so, I'll try a more gentle process first as it's on plasterboard, maybe sugar soap and see how I go. It's all good fun. 😊 X

Its crazy how rabbits are so "social" and should have a friend but its so hard to provide that life for them

I’m not sure how you keep buns from jumping out of the clear box, mine hop right out. I have lionhead mix.

😭😭😭😭 OMG Thank you for this video!!!!! We are going on weeks of trying to bond. They are brother and sister but after we got the whole lot spayed and neutered is when we had all sorts of problems!! My boy got a tore lip either from their fur fight or from when we were trying to kennel one while the other was free. Hard sad lesson. This is painful but rehoming will never be an option for us either. I can’t wait to be big happy family again. Our buns are free roaming as well, so seeing my buns in a kennel with locked doors is killing me!!!! ❤❤❤ 24/7 here I come.

May i ask how you tackled the underneath of the rail. Did you mean to paint it or take the white paint off if you know what i mean...

I'm bonding two males and they're in a space the size of your cage, both have litter boxes and do share the same water and food bowl. They flop and are relaxed as well as get treats, but do have bouts of aggression. Whenever one goes to lay next to the other in their box there's a bit of chasing, but only until the other one leaves the box. I did have some boxing, but they stopped when I said No, to them. We are on day 1.5, I read that if you separate after a fight then they'll remember the fight and you don't want that. They don't pull fur or nip anymore so, I guess that's good.

Thank you so very much for all the information...I planned on bonding my girls Nyxie and Luna this weekend. Yes, I also have a Luna. I was quite nervous just thinking about the process but your video had so much detail I feel more positive about what I need to do as their dad. I can't wait to get this started, the sooner the better eh. Tomorrow's the first step towards our life without gates or cages separating us.

Ty! Have you a link for the next video please? X

Great video, thank you!

Wow it looks beautiful. Looking for tips as I’m starting my stairs too. The house is over 100 years old so god knows how many layers are on the banisters . Xx

Wow bonded two girls. Amazing. Mine comming in 2 months.

Hi, just wanted to say what a brilliant video. I love the idea of making my garden as wildlife-friendly as possible. We moved into our first house a few months ago and will soon be tackling the garden. So much useful information in this video. An update video would be great!! Thank you 😊

Thanks for the information, helpfull

I don't want to paint over d marks straight away I know it will peel.

I need help. Iv oak real wooden stairs there all marked and scraped not sure what to do. Can u help me?

Well done

Take a look at a product called Peelaway 1 and Peelaway 7. Brilliant if you live in an older Victorian house with multiple layers of paint. Warning the lower layers of paint may contain lead so not ideal for sanding or heat guns. The peel away product is a poultice you put on cover and leave then…… peel away. Hope this helps.

I'm going to try this this week. Hopefully it will be successful, you've made it quite simple but also emotional I hope they will get on 😊

Looks lovely...done a grand job there both of u.

Your video has been such an encouragement! You mentioned that you did a lot of reading. Are there any books or resources that you found particularly helpful?

Lol... I'm sure now you are so happy with the hard work you did. I did get a bit of a chuckle about trapping yourself. It sounds like something I would do.

Hi! Hopefully you’ll read my questions before I start rebonding. I’m in the same situation right now. I have 2 male rabbits. Found out at the vet. Everyone says that the two will never get along anymore. Rehoming is not a solution for us. Both are 5 months and fixed. Last one got fixed 2 weeks ago. I have seen your video a couple of time now. The more I see the more I understand. But 1 thing remains unclear for me. When the bunny’s are ready to go back tot their enclosure (where they used to live) do I have to renew the things? For example they have a thick kind of doormat to walk/sleep on. Should buy new ones? I have to clean the entire area with vinegar. Diluted? If I take them for a ride. What if a fight breaks out in the box itself? This freaks me out although I also think that they might be so stressed and distracted that a fight might not even pop up. And last but not least: thank you! This video is a guideline for me!!

Stew pot is a deepest bond maybe. you and rabbit become one!

question‼️ what bonding method is best when first introducing? would you recommend the very small space, or bathtub/playpen? thank you!

Luna!!!!! That’s our female rabbits name

Thank you so much! This video is beyond helpful and full of great tips! Never thought of putting them in a clear high sided tote for phase one of bonding. So much easier to keep an eye on them that way.

I would appreciate any insight/advice: I have 2 lops that are about a year & a half, both spayed. They’ve had 2 prior fight and rebondings. They lived separately in x-pens next to one another for months and seemed content- would kiss and cuddle through the bars so I decided to try another rebond session. I had them in a neutral territory and 24/7 bonded them for a week. They were absolutely perfect: sharing food & grooming and cuddling, so I moved them back in to where their permanent home would be. I sanitized the area and sprayed everything with vinegar water. 3 days together and still doing great. I left to run errands and came back hrs later to them cuddling but there was a mess of fur all over the enclosure. Upon inspection, one had bite marks and some bald patches on her back that I put a little neosporin on. I am at a loss and don’t really know how to move forward with them. For now they will be in separate xpens again until the wounds heal up. I’m not sure if I should jump back in trying to bond them again straight away. I have them on my lap together as I type this but I could really use some help w/ what I can maybe try next or any advice from people with similar experiences. I know they love each other and I want them to be as happy as possible <3

Thank you so much for documenting your bunnies bonding journey. Your information is invaluable to us as we have two bunnies and getting two more soon. I’m so happy to hear your bunnies got to be friends at the end. You have done an amazing work with them!

I'm so glad I found this, thank you for sharing your experience. My boys have a very similar situation and seeing this gives me hope that they can still be friends if I just keep putting in the right amount of hard work and effort.

Hi, I’m trying bond my rabbits. My female, Hope has been very aggressive towards my male, Harry. Before I had gotten Harry, hope was bonded with another rabbit, Stella, until he passed away. I didn’t bring the body home because I was too upset and it was my first pet death. I know she’s been aggressive because of that. So here comes Harry. She will put her head down for him in the front but will bite his back side. Of course he starts to fight back and I break it up right away. Recently she had bit his ear very hard causing an injury on Harry. I’m not sure where to go from here to get them bonded. Any advice?

Is it hard to bond males?

Thank you for your video. I have a question during the 24/7 bonding process was you 24/7 with the rabbits?
