Bathing Beauty

I decided to try another trick.  I noticed with the large area they had, they were able to avoid each other quite easily.  So, I decreased the size of the pen by about 1/3 to encourage more interaction.  This proved major success!  Hopscotch was very interested in Putter and kept following him around.  After about 15-20 minutes, Hopscotch finally approached Putter and quickly went after his ear and started cleaning it.  Putter sat still, not 100% enjoying it, but also not willing to fight him away.  It's also the first time another bunny has bathed him since his mother.  Putter would have enough and hop away and this dance continued with four more bathings.  After only 40 minutes, I thought I'd give Putter a break and let him dry out.  I opened their cage doors and they both happily went inside.  And I happily went upstairs with a full heart.
