Will my Rabbit Change?
Many people wonder if their rabbit will change once they have aplaymate. The answer of course, is yes. Every situation is different soI cannot tell you what will happen with your rabbit, but I do know thatyour rabbit will be happier.
If you have a rabbit who is friendly with you, they will remainfriendly. They do love human attention. If your rabbit is shy, and thenew rabbit craves human attention, you may easily find that your bunwill mimic the new rabbit and find some strength from his example. Theymay find themselves with their new mate begging for attention withoutrealizing it. If they see it isn't scary for the other bunny then maybeit isn't so bad.
While a mate does sometimes help bring a rabbit out if their shell, Ihave also seen the reverse. A shy bun that receives a mate may decidethat it wants to concentrate on building that relationship. With timeyour rabbit will become friendlier, but it may take a little longer.
I do want to stress, that I have never seen a friendly rabbit loseinterest in human companionship. Once a bunny likes you, they alwayswill.
Many people state that rabbits are less likely to get into trouble oncethey have a mate. They aren't as bored and are more content. While thisis true in some cases, rabbits do learn from each other and I have seenrabbits teach each other bad habits. Hazy, my digger, fell in love withHershey, a non digger. Once day I saw them both in a corner- she woulddig, he would dig, and this repeated itself. Clearly he was learningfrom her and quickly become a more intense digger than she ever was.Monkey see, monkey do. They may get into less trouble because they arehappier, but they may also learn new bad habits.
Every case is different. I can tell you that your rabbit will behappier, may be friendlier and get into less trouble, but I cannotguarantee any of it.
