Hi there,
ive had a male pup (now 8 weeks) and my 2yo male in a ‘cage in cage’ for a week now. I tried introducing them this evening and they ignored each other at first. Then they came together and oddly the little pup started grooming the adult. Then there was a scuffling in the hide which I believe was the pup running away (he is incredibly jumpy and agile). I was quite surprised, since I thought the pup would lie down and submit, and the adult would be happy enough and that would be about it. I decided to separate in case this was a fight. Was I being naive?! Should I wait longer? There’s been lots of kissing through the bars.
