As some of you may know, more than likely next summer a friend is moving to the UK, and leaving her bun to me. The plan was to have her spayed, take her on a few bunny dates, and adopt a whoever she seemed to like the most to be her companion. I was talking to my mom today about our probable new addition, and she agreed to let me have her, but she didn't want me getting another.
I will be spaying her immediantly regardless, but is it alright for her to be a lone bun for a year until I move out and am able to get her a friend? My mother may change her mind, she seemed to be in an annoyed mood today, but if she doesn't I want to be sure the bun will be okay alone for a time.
Her cage will be in my room, and I spend most of my time in there during the school year, so besides when I'm asleep/at school, she won't be alone most of the time. I have rats as well, so aside from their 2 to 3 hour play and interaction time(depending on how long they want to be out for) she'll have freerange of my room. Probably from about 3pm till around 10 or 11 pm(minus rattie time) on school nights, and the majority of the day on weekends. Do you think that will be okay?
I want to be sure to do right by her, and if it is best for her to have a friend immediantly, I'll work with my local rabbit rescue to adopt her out to a multi-bun home.
From a look around on here, it seems many people have lone buns, but I don't know if that'sdue to their buns not wanting company or being aggressive towards other buns. I googled it as well, and got mixed answers
