When Joey and I first adopted Ginger, we broke the first rule of bunny bonding – we never introduce our existing bunny, JuJu, to Ginger before we adopted Ginger.  The danger in not having them meet first is that the two bunnies might not get along and they might be unbondable together.  Luckily for us, Juju and Ginger bonded (although not easily).

Yesterday, our foster bun Bao Bao had her first date.  A gentleman caller named Brownie came to visit.  The parents supervised of course but it went extremely well.

Here are some picture.

Bao Bao was very curious about Brownie.  In the first 5 minutes of the date, she actually went over and groomed his ears.  That’s an excellent sign!

Then we smooched them together.

Bao Bao and Brownie both groomed themselves while on the date.  This was also an excellent sign that they can be bonded with each other because it shows that they’re comfortable with each other enough to let their guard down and wash.
