Room to relax: Give your bunny set-up a once over before you start to make any introductions. It will also protect your rabbits from health issues like womb cancer. Getting your rabbits neutered before you introduce them will make the bonding process much smoother. Males and females can also mate and produce a lot of baby rabbits – even brothers and sisters will mate once they’re adults. Neuter your rabbits: Unneutered rabbits are more likely to fight. Illnesses or pain can make introductions harder since they will already be feeling uncomfortable – most people don’t feel very sociable if they have a horrible cold or tooth ache! Make sure your bunnies are in good health: Get them both a check-up from the vet. Check out our guide on where to get rabbits. You might like to look for a rescue rabbit. Look for rabbits around the same age and size if possible. Find the right friend: A pair of neutered male and female rabbits are the ideal pairing to have, although it’s possible to introduce other combinations, too, as long as they’re all neutered. Not only will your rabbit be happier living in a bonded pair or group, you’ll get so much satisfaction and enjoyment from watching them snuggling together. Usually, it’s a few weeks before your bunnies will be living happily together but it is well worth the wait. The whole bonding process can take as little as one day or up to several months – it all depends on your rabbits. Imagine moving in with a complete stranger and being expected to be best friends right away – occasionally you might meet someone you really ‘click’ with, but mostly you won’t be crazy about them straight away! Your rabbits will also need time to get to know each other. 
You’ll need to introduce them to each other slowly and carefully. Introducing rabbit “strangers” so that they become friends is called bonding.
