50 minute video - Certificated at 1 hour of CPD

Rabbits are a social species and studies have shown they value the company of another rabbit as much as food. Bonded rabbits will show a range of behaviours, which lone rabbits are unable to participate in.

However, they are also territorial and can cause serious injuries on each other. It is therefore imperative that rabbits are bonded carefully, following specific strategies, in order to achieve a harmonious, long-term partnership.

During the presentation we will learn:

  • Why rabbits need a companion
  • What makes a good pairing
  • Initial bonding steps to be taken
  • The bonding process, including positive and negative signs
