We've been considering a second bunny for Gizmo for a while now. Gizmo is a 2 year old spayed Holland lop we adopted about 14 months ago.
Our local shelter will let us set up bunny dates, and suggests at least 2-3 separate meetings before bringing a new bunny home. We would make sure Gizmo had a say in what bunny we adopt, if we adopt.
I'm on board with a second bunny, my husband is 50/50, he's trying to weigh the pros and cons of adopting again, so I'm making him a list, here's what I've got:
Cons:
overall bonding process, but we're prepared for that, I just know own it will take some work and time.
Extra expense of hay, pellets, possible vet bills, etc.
More poop and fur, overall cleanup
Pro:
We have a xl dog pen so housing is already set up, we wouldn't need to get anything new
Companion for Gizmo
More bunnies to love!!
Can anyone add pros or cons to my list I'm not thinking of here? Trying to weigh the options to help make a decision one way or the other.
Thanks!!
