Hi all
Our bunnyboy Terry passed away two days a go at the vet. We didn't get to bring his partner Jasmine to say goodbye. I read that it's best to bring the bunny to spend some time with the other one.
Now we regret it because Jasmine seems confused, she's sniffing looking at the spots that Terry always there before. Seems like she's trying to find him everywhere. We've spent a lot of time with her but she refused to be petted, always runs away when we approached her. She was really close to Terry and depended on him but not to us.
She's still eating and pooping but less than usual because she's busier roaming around the house sniffing. We have to encourage her to eat.
Planning to get her a new partner, when do you think it's the best time? Some says wait for a week so that she would realize Terry is no longer here. By looking at her behavior I'm worry that waiting for another week will make her worst. We're worry leaving her alone in the house will make her feeling lost or stress but unfortunately we have to go to work. Any suggestions?
Thank you so much!

). The first week or two is the hardest; I've found it takes an average of around a month for most rabbits to be fairly well adjusted to a major change (moving, loss of a bonded companion, new human in the house, new non-bonded animal in the home).
