So just a little background before I get to my questions: Taz has been doing great, and she's now putting weight on her broken leg! She even binkied a couple times! We're feeling confident with her recovery, and my parents said that once the big NIC cage is done and Taz is comfortable moved in, we can maybe get another rabbit to keep her company since i'm at school, and I go between my mom's house and dad's house (my parents are divorced) and since I spend half and half time at both houses and the rabbits DO NOT travel with me, I thought Taz could use a little buddy soon. We're not ready to start looking at rabbits yet however.
But, since we will be looking soon, I want to prepare ahead. Taz is 3 months old and not spayed, and i plan on getting a female rabbit. I can't find any places in our area that have spayed rabbits for sale, so we will buy one from a pet store we love and trust. Can Taz and another female rabbit close to her own age bond, even if they are unspayed? We've never spayed/nuetered our buns (to be honest, i didn't know it could be done ) and its worked out fine for us. The 2 buns would be indoors in a big NIC cage that has a divider down the middle. Taz lived with her mother and sister previously (but through a tragic accident they were both killed) and I just have that sense that Taz needs another little friend. Now that she has become more active, she is running around her tiny cage, chewing things (bowls, her litterbox and grass cave) so I think thats a sign of boredom. I think she'll be happier once she's in the big NIC...
So, thoughts? Sorry; this post has been kinda long and confusing
Thank you!!
