Rabbit Bonding: Beyond Coexistence — Show Notes

Ever looked at your rabbits and thought "yep, they're bonded, they haven't fought in ages"? This episode dives into one of the most misunderstood aspects of rabbit bonding: the difference between coexisting and truly being bonded.

In this episode:

• Why "they haven't fought" doesn't mean rabbits are actually bonded
• A cautionary tale from a client whose rabbits' bond broke shortly after coming home from a rescue
• How professional bonding services vary — and why speed isn't everything
• Why large spaces can make rabbits look bonded when they're really just avoiding each other
• How adjusting space (bigger or smaller) can reveal what's really going on between rabbits
• A case where changing space led to more communication — and a better outcome
• Why occasional friction and boundary-testing can be a good sign, not a bad one
• The risks of taking rabbits home from a bonder without a truly established relationship
• Why there's no fixed "number of days" formula for bonding
• The key question to ask instead of "are they fighting?": what relationship are they actually building?
• Why even rabbits that seem to "instantly click" should still go through the full bonding process

Key takeaway: A quiet, peaceful pair isn't automatically a bonded pair. Look at the relationship being built — communication, boundaries, and hierarchy — not just the absence of fighting.

 The human side of rabbit bonding — stress, exhaustion, reassurance, motivation and why the person doing the bonding needs support too. 

This week's episode is about a side of rabbit bonding that rarely gets discussed: the human doing the bonding. While most advice online focuses on rabbit behavior and technique, this episode explores why supporting the person is just as critical to a successful bond.

Topics covered:

• Why bonding can be exhausting and all-consuming if you let it take over your life
• Looking after clients holistically — eating, sleeping, taking breaks, and staying connected to life outside the bonding pen
• A real example: a client bonding six rabbits who I told to take a break rather than start a new bond
• Why taking time off isn't giving up — but also why consistency matters mid-bond
• The emotional rollercoaster of bonding: self-doubt, anxiety, and needing reassurance rather than more instructions
• How being too close to the situation can make it hard to see progress, and why an outside perspective helps
• Helping owners decide what's right for their rabbits instead of following a rigid checklist
• What real support looks like: encouragement, perspective, decision-making help, and even guidance if a bond isn't working out
• The reminder that your relationships, work, and wellbeing matter just as much as the bonding process

Key takeaway: Sometimes the best thing you can do for your rabbits is look after their human.

Rabbit bonding isn't a checklist — it's hundreds of tiny decisions. And getting even one wrong can cost you weeks. Today I'm breaking down why 'just follow the steps' advice fails rabbit parents, and what actually separates a smooth bond from a stressful one

Bonding rabbits isn't about following a rigid checklist — it's a series of daily judgment calls. In this episode, the Bunny Bonding Coach breaks down why so many rabbit parents get stuck second-guessing themselves, why identical behaviors (chasing, mounting, nipping) can mean completely different things depending on context, and why it is really about knowing when to act, not just what to do.

The Honest Truth About Which Bonding Support I'd Recommend for You

One of the most common questions I get asked is: "How do I know which support option is right for me?" And it's a great question — because every rabbit, every rabbit parent, and every bond is completely different.

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes and explain exactly how I decide what level of support to recommend. Spoiler: it's never a one-size-fits-all answer.

What I cover:

• Why I look at the rabbits, the owner, and the bonding goals together
• The difference between a confident, knowledge-seeking rabbit parent and one who needs more hands-on support — and why that changes everything
• Real examples of two rabbit parents with similar rabbits who needed completely different support
• Why I'd rather recommend the cheaper option if it's the right one for you
• How to find out which support is the best fit for your situation

Have you ever said — or heard someone say — "My rabbit hates other rabbits" or "My rabbits are unbondable"? In this episode of the Bunny Coach Podcast, we're busting two of the most common (and most discouraging) bonding myths out there — and explaining what's really going on when your rabbits fight.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why "my rabbit hates other rabbits" is almost never actually true
• Why "my rabbits are unbondable" is a conclusion most people reach far too soon
• The real reasons rabbits fight when they first meet 
• Why social media and bunfluencers are giving rabbit owners an unrealistic picture of bonding
• The setup mistakes that make fighting almost inevitable — and how to avoid them
• Why some of the closest, most loving bonds start off the most volatile

If you've given up on bonding after a bad first session — or you're scared to even start — this episode is for you. Most rabbits are bondable with the right partner, method, and process, even if it doesn't look that way at first.

• The real reason dominant behaviors like mounting, nipping, and fur pulling need to happen
• What goes wrong when you step in too soon 
• How to know when to intervene and how — without doing too much or too little

Same Size, Same Breed, Opposite Sex? What REALLY Matters When Pairing Your Rabbits

If you've ever searched for a friend for your bunny, you've probably come across a long list of "rules" — they should be the same size, the same breed, opposite sex, a similar age... (or you may be panicking that the pair you have already don't fit the 'criteria') But how much of this actually matters?

In this episode, Fiona Murphy, the Bunny Coach breaks down the most common rabbit bonding myths and replaces them with what her experience supporting over 500 bonds worldwide has actually taught her.

In this episode we cover:

• Size — does it really matter if one rabbit is bigger than the other?
• Breed — will same-breed rabbits get along better?
• Age — should you match your rabbits' ages, or get a baby?
• Gender — the big one. Are male-female pairs really easier? Can two males bond?
• Siblings and baby bonds — why rabbits that grew up together aren't necessarily bonded for life
• Related rabbits — do shared genetics mean they're more likely to get along?

And she shares what actually DOES make a difference:

Whether you're looking for a companion for your bunny or you already have two rabbits you're desperate to make work — this episode will give you the reassurance and clarity you need.

🐰 “Not All Mounting Is Dominance”
Why context matters in rabbit bonding behaviour

In this episode, I’m sharing a real bonding case from inside my One to One VIP support programme that perfectly demonstrates why rabbit behaviour can’t be interpreted in isolation.

A rabbit who appeared “dominant” at first glance was actually communicating something very different — and it’s the perfect example of why bonding behaviour can’t be reduced to simple labels.

We explore:

• Why the same behaviour can mean very different things in different bonds
• How emotional dynamics influence rabbit behaviour
• Why context matters more than isolated incidents
• The questions I ask when analysing bonding sessions
• Why rabbit bonding is more nuanced than many people realise
• How understanding the “why” behind behaviour changes the way you support a bond

We also talk about:
🐇 Rabbits begging for grooming
🐇 Why one bunny was basically saying “absolutely not” 😂

This episode is especially helpful if you’ve ever found yourself spiralling over a specific behaviour and wondering:

“Is this normal?”
“Is this dominance?”
“Should I be worried?”

Because bonding is not about ticking behaviours off a checklist.

It’s about understanding the relationship between the rabbits in front of you.

And often, the exact same behaviour can mean completely different things depending on the context.

🐰 DID YOU WIN THE RABBIT LOTTERY?
Why some “instant bonds” aren’t actually secure bonds

In this episode, we’re talking about one of the biggest misconceptions in rabbit bonding: the “instant bond.”

Some rabbits appear to fall in love immediately. No fighting. No drama. No stressful bonding sessions. It can feel like you’ve completely skipped the hard part.

But… is that always a true bond?

In this episode, I explore:

• The difference between coexistence and genuine bonding
• Why some rabbits seem fine in large spaces but fight in carriers or pens
• What rabbits still need to learn, even when they “get along”
• The role hierarchy and communication play in long-term bond success
• Why unresolved dynamics can show up weeks or even months later
• The subtle signs that a bond may not actually feel secure to the rabbits
• Why “they seem fine” isn’t always enough
• How to create a bond that feels stable, safe, and trustworthy long term

I also share a real-life example of a pair who appeared bonded on the surface, but whose behaviour suggested the hierarchy still hadn’t been resolved.

Because while instant bonds do happen — and sometimes you really have won the rabbit lottery — a secure bond is still something that needs to be built intentionally.

This episode is for you if:
🐇 Your rabbits seemed to bond immediately
🐇 Your rabbits only fight in small spaces
🐇 You’re unsure whether your rabbits are truly bonded
🐇 You want a safer, more stable long-term relationship between your rabbits

A bond shouldn’t just “look fine.”
It should feel secure for the rabbits too.

Sometimes rabbit bonding success isn't about one big dramatic moment — it's in the tiny interactions that most people miss.

In this episode, I share a beautiful video update from a client whose rabbits, Daisy and Cooper, I helped bond in person. Daisy had been a solo rabbit for some time, and Cooper came from the local SPCA. Their bonding had a tricky start as they worked out their hierarchy — but watching them genuinely relax into each other is exactly why I do what I do.

In this episode I cover:

• Why tiny interactions are often more telling than big dramatic ones
• The story of Daisy and Cooper — and the moment that made my day
• Why relaxed body language and chosen closeness matter more than "no fighting"
• How a bond becoming more secure can look very quiet
• Why it's easy to get caught in a panic spiral during bonding — and how to step back and observe instead

When Bonded Rabbits Fall Out — Episode #38

In this episode, I share the story of Joey and Chandler, two bonded mini Rex brothers whose relationship broke down once hormones kicked in — and how we got them back together again.

What we cover:

• Why bonded rabbits fall out 
• Why babies often get on, but adults struggle
• The importance of neutering and waiting 8–12 weeks after
• Why keeping them separate in the meantime is essential
• The dangers of repeated bonding attempts without a plan
• How to read bonding behaviors — when to step in vs. wait
• Joey and Chandler's happy ending 🐰

Key takeaways:

• If they loved each other once, they can love each other again
• Never underestimate the damage rabbits can do to each other
• Bonding needs a process — observation, setup, and timing

Not all rabbit bonds go to plan… and when fights happen, it can feel like there’s no way back.

In this episode, I’m sharing a real-life rebonding story, including a pair who came back from a difficult fallout — and what that process can actually look like behind the scenes.

I also talk about why some rabbits seem to “hold a grudge,” what’s really going on in those situations, and why bonding is often less about luck… and more about skill.

If you’re feeling unsure, stuck, or worried that your rabbits have gone too far, this episode offers a different perspective — and a reminder that things aren’t always as final as they seem.

"Best gender combination for baby rabbits"

"Getting two baby rabbits — male or female?"

"Are two male baby rabbits OK together?"

"Can two female baby rabbits live together?"

"Will baby rabbits fight when they grow up?"

"Do baby rabbits need to be separated by sex?"

"When do baby rabbits start fighting?"

"Can baby rabbits mate with their siblings?"

This is for you!!

Do Rabbits Grieve When Their Bonded Partner Dies? What to Do Next

Rabbits form incredibly strong social bonds, so when one bunny dies, the surviving rabbit can experience real behavioural and health changes. In some cases they may become withdrawn, stop eating properly, or even develop gut stasis, which is why it’s so important to support them carefully during this time.

In this episode of The Bunny Coach Podcast, I answer a question from a bunny parent about what really happens when a rabbit loses their bonded partner and how to help a bereaved bunny through the transition.

You’ll learn:

• Whether rabbits really grieve and how long it may last
 • Why bereaved rabbits can be at higher risk of gut stasis
• Signs your rabbit may be struggling after losing their partner
• Why it’s usually best to give both yourself and your rabbit time before rushing into getting another bunny
• The pros and cons of adopting a baby rabbit vs an already neutered rescue rabbit
• Why rabbit “speed dating” at rescues doesn’t always predict bonding success
• How quarantine and pre-bonding can help set up a future bond for success
• Why simply having another rabbit nearby can sometimes help a bereaved bunny feel less alone

Are My Rabbits Unbondable? What to Do When Rabbits Fight

The Bunny Coach Podcast

Episode Summary

If your rabbits went straight into a fight during their first bonding session, you might be convinced they’re unbondable. But before you give up, listen to this episode. With experience supporting over 500 rabbit bonds, the Bunny Coach shares why fighting doesn’t mean failed bonding — and what you can do instead.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

•      Why rabbits often fight on first meeting — and what it actually means

•       Why it can seem like you have two dominant rabbits — and what's really going on

•      Why a tailor-made bonding plan works better than a one-size-fits-all method

•      The rare circumstances where a rabbit genuinely cannot be bonded

•      What to do if bonding really isn’t working — including rehoming options and why there’s no shame in that

Key Takeaways

•      Fighting on first introduction is very common and does not mean your rabbits are unbondable.

•      Most rabbits — even rescue rabbits with difficult histories — can be successfully bonded.

•      What looks like two dominant rabbits is often a dominant rabbit and a frightened one.

•      Bonding requires a flexible, tailored approach based on your rabbits’ individual history, your home setup, and your available time.

•      Truly unbondable rabbits are rare, and usually have experienced significant trauma.

•      If bonding doesn’t work out, rehoming is a valid option — not something to feel guilty about.

🎧 The Bunny Coach Podcast: Pet Loss, Grief & Love That Never Leaves

With Reverend Kaleel Sakakeeny

Losing a beloved pet can feel just as devastating as losing a family member — and yet, so many pet parents grieve in silence.

In this deeply moving episode of the Bunny Coach Podcast, Fiona is joined by Reverend Kaleel Sakakeeny, an ordained animal chaplain and credentialed pet loss grief counsellor based in the United States. After losing his own “big, big love,” Kaleel transformed his heartbreak into purpose and went on to found Animal Talks, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting people through the grief of losing an animal companion.

Together, Fiona and Kaleel explore why pet loss hurts so profoundly, why grief is not something to “get over,” and how love continues long after our pets are physically gone.

This episode is for anyone who has ever loved — and lost — a bunny, cat, dog, or any cherished animal.

🐾 In This Episode, We Talk About:

• Why losing a pet can feel as devastating as losing a human loved one
• The difference between grief and depression — and why pet loss is often misunderstood
• Why grief is not something to “fix,” medicate, or rush
• How animals bring out our best selves — and why losing them feels so destabilising
• Why we don’t “move on” from grief — we integrate it into our lives
• The Rainbow Bridge: why it comforts many people, and where it can fall short
• Whether we’ll meet our pets again in the afterlife
• Helping children navigate the loss of a beloved pet in a healthy way
• When grief becomes complicated or stuck — and how to know when extra support is needed
• How to honour your pet through rituals, remembrance, and making meaning from loss

🕯️ A Conversation About Love, Not Letting Go

As Fiona shares the loss of her heart bunny Tango, and Kaleel reflects on the cat who changed the course of his life, this episode gently reminds us:

Grief is not the price we pay for loving —
 it is proof that love existed, and still does.

You are not weak for hurting.
 You are not “too attached.”
 And you are not alone.

🧠 Support & Resources Mentioned

Kaleel’s nonprofit Animal Talks offers:

• One-to-one pet loss grief counselling
• Monthly online healing circles
• Online courses including:
  • Will I Meet My Pet in the Afterlife?
  • Running a Healing Circle
  • Certified Pet Grief Specialist & Educator (8-week programme)

26th June 2026 - UPDATE ON THIS - IN THE UK, IRELAND AND EUROPE THERE IS A NEW VACCINE BY YURVAC AVAILABLE AS IT IS BELIEVED TO COVER A NEW STRAIN OF VHD2 WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY THE ORIGINAL VACCINE.

So in Ireland / UK and Europe it is recomnmended to have two annual vaccines - The  'Triple' vaccine against RVHD (also kown as VHD or RHD) 1, 2 and also Myxomatosis and The New vaccine by Yurvac covering RVHD 1 and 2, including the new strain

These can be given 2 weeks apart, but since your rabbit should be checked by a vet every 6 months, you can also have them done 6 months apart - this is also thought to give added protection 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION-
Not all vets are offering this new vaccine for two reasons - 

1. It is only currently available in multi vial doses in most places - once the bottle is open it must be used within a few hours, which means they need to run a clinic and book lots of rabbits in the same day to have the vaccine, rather than vaccinating your rabbit whenever you are in the clinic or want to come in, as is the case with the other vaccines as they come in single vial doses' It also isn't that readily available yet - in some places it IS available in single vial doses though

2. It is not thought that the new strain has reached the UK or Ireland, - or that there is evidence that the 'old' vaccine won't protect against it if it is here, and some vets are concerned that giving them the other vaccine as well can be an overload on the rabbits system 'double dosing' which can cause health issues.

So you may find some vets don't offer it, - if your vet is rabbit savvy (very experienced with rabbits, sees lots of them and has done additonal 'exotic' training) then they will be up to date on this and you and your vet can make a decision together, weighing up the pros and cons. If you still want the vaccine and your vet doesn't do it, you can contact other vets to see if they do.

🐇PLEASE NOTE, I HAVE HEARD OF SEVERAL CASES WHERE RABBITS ARE OFF THEIR FOOD / HAVE TUMMY ISSUES OR ARE OUT OF SORTS FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AFTER HAVING THE NEW VACCINE - if you are going ahead and getting the vaccine, please do discuss this with your vet and what to do if it happens. 




In this episode, Fiona, also known as The Bunny Coach, discusses the importance of In this episode, Fiona, also known as The Bunny Coach, discusses the importance of vaccinating rabbits against Myxomatosis and Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease (RHD) Types 1 and 2. She explains that these man-made diseases, originally meant to control wild rabbit populations, now pose a threat to domestic rabbits worldwide, even those kept indoors. Fiona details how these diseases spread and the severe symptoms they cause, emphasizing the urgency and effectiveness of vaccination. She also advises consulting rabbit-savvy vets or researching online for the latest vaccinations available in your country, and highlights the convenience of combination vaccines like the ‘three-in-one’. Fiona concludes by encouraging pet owners to advocate for their rabbits' health through proactive vaccination.
