Pet's info: Small Animal | Rabbit | Female | spayed | 1.5 lbs

For some reason at the night fluffy attacks bun bun like she doesn’t know her, why?

Thanks for reaching out about your rabbits. Not an uncommon response in intact females, protection of the warren. Both rabbits needed to be spayed due to the high chance of uterine cancer in rabbits. Good luck.
