Hi,
Thanks for stopping by on this thread. This February, I lost my precious bunny (9 y.o.) to cancer. It was terrible blow as I was so attached to her, well, as probably every bunny lover is to their beloved pet.
For few months after she died I've been just feeling so miserable and was almost unable to do anything. Now, with months slowly passing, I've again a bit started to think about buying another bunny because really, the home just feels so empty and lonely without her. However, I'm still a bit unsure, is it too soon? I'm indeed still grieving but at the same time I think I could again open my hearth to another bunny and I'm thinking that maybe also then the 'solitude' wouldn't feel that horrible. Also, as I'm currently unemployed I was thinking that it would be also quite good as now I would have lots of time for the rabbit, but well, still I'm not really sure.
What are your own experiences or opinions about this? Did you go through something similar? Do you think it helped you (and your grieving process) to get another rabbit and open your hearth again quite soon after your rabbit died or would you say it's better to wait e.g. a year or more?
Thanks for any comments and opinions!
