A squirt of water on the nose can often prevent an aggressive behavior if it's done before the act begins, but is usually ineffective once a fight has begun. You may want to wear thick gloves and a long-sleeved shirt for initial bonding sessions in case a fight ensues. Introductions should be done in a neutral space to minimize the occurrence of these territorial behaviors.
Rabbits are extremely territorial, and may exhibit behaviors such as chinning, and urinating, chasing, batting, biting, or mounting. Males can stay fertile for up to six weeks after neutering and may still exhibit hormonal behavior during this time. This allows for the rabbit to heal and for his/her hormones to balance. Wait 2-4 weeks after the surgery before attempting introductions. Bonding is generally easier when rabbits have been sterilized. Before introducing two rabbits, both should be spayed or neutered.
