I've been wondering a long time about getting a second bun. Now that Agnes is spayed and healed completely, the thought crosses my mind more.
I also wonder if Agnes would want a friend. Rabbits are social, so can they truly be happy living alone? Agnes gets excited to see me every time and literally won't leave me alone (which I love) but when she's by herself in her "apartment" free run, when i go down to check on her she's usually back in her condo just sitting there she used to play and run and climb all over when I wasn't down there!! Now, she only comes out if I'm down there with her.
So RO...I'd like your opinions on the following things:
*can rabbits be happy alone?
*does having two buns change the human relationship (ie will Agnes not "like" me anymore if she has a friend)
*why did you get more than one bun?
*do you notice the addition of a second bun drastically? (ie supplies, smell, time it takes to care for them, etc) or since you already have one they just merge in, so to speak?
*what if they never bond? This is my biggest fear!! I'm not sure I want two separate cages and two seperate buns?!! So I'd have to rehome the second bun. Am I horrible???
Thanks in advance for all thoughts and input
