Hello everyone,
I have not posted on this forum for a while but I have once again ran into a issue which hopefully people in this forum can answer.
I have had two cats (one male, one female) for the last 5 months both tested, fixed and up to date on shots. Both are very friendly and love to play as far as I see them.
My girlfriend has decided to adopt a baby bunny in attempt to rescue a litter of baby bunnies that were going to be given off to random people who may or may not use them as prey for other animals. (Really sick f**ks)
The bunny would be somewhere from 4-6 months of age, and is already fixed and up to date in shots as we are adopting from an animal shelter in New York City. Additionally, the animal shelter claims that the particular baby bunny we are going to be adopting is very well socialized from a young age.
Since my girlfriend and I will be living in the same house (different rooms) I was wondering how I could integrate the bunny into socializing with my kittens. I heard that they are very social animals, and on some websites I saw, people wrote that their kittens got along with the bunny whereas some people wrote that it could be a risky business.
So my question is how exactly could I do this, and also since I go to college (as well as my girl friend) we would have to leave the cats and the bunny alone at some points in the day. However, I will emphasize that me or my girlfriend are almost never away from the house for more than 3 hours, and even if one of us are not at the house for longer than 3 hours, the other will almost always be at the house.
Thank you for reading this, and hopefully people can give me some insight on this, and even some pointers on how I can be a better friend to my newest family member.
