I want to try and introduce them at some point and encourage friendly relations. Has anyone had a similar experience? At the moment when 'Percy' (the rabbit) is out the kitten is put away in his 'den'... will it ever be possible for them to be friends?

Percy loves the kitten and flops by his kitty house all the time, will the kitten eventually love Percy?

We got an 8wo bunny and successfully introduced him to the 5yo cat. Bunny now flollops round after Cat, who sniffs at him disdainfully then pats a ball across when she thinks we're not looking Wink

Bunny is coming up 9 months now Smile

Purple I consider my response to be measured and reasonable. It's a kitten and a baby bunny. What part of this don't you understand?

That was Mango Sad The bunny arrived as company for Shy Millie after Brave Mango lost a fight with a car early this year

I read your thread earlier about mango and your dad. My lovely old 'Boy' died last weekend, it's a horrible thing. DP found 'Tiger' on Tuesday. Funny how things work out isn't it.

Percy at 5 months is a huuuuuge bunny now (he's a 'giant' breed), he was on my lap earlier trying to drink my gin!! he's currently flopped by Tiger Grin

Mango was part way through the registration with Pets As Therapy. I was going to take him into work with me (adults with disabilities). They only take cats and dogs, so Bunny will be staying home with DP because we can only be insured for animals at work if they're registered as therapy animals.

Bunny's name is Santana, and he's just a lop-eared mixed breed from the pet shop. I should have rescued, but didn't know you could until afterwards Blush
