So, Clover, who was adopted in August, is finally feeling like a real part of the tiny family I have here. We're a small family of two humans (soon to be wed next year), three cats, and one bunny now. I'm so happy! I would like to make sure Clover is the happiest she can be, though. Lately she's been opening up a lot more. I feel like my time and effort being put into her is finally starting to 'pay off'. Today, for instance, she came up to me on her own free will while I was laying on the floor with one of the cats and actually nudged herself under my blanket and rested herself on top of my arm and let me pet her for a good while. She's layed with me before, but not that quickly and happily!
My fiance and I want to enlarge her pen. She is in a 'normal' one you get from Petco (she is only shut in it at night for bed-time, other than that she has free range of the whole room with us all day when we're home). We're going to make a larger one out of those grids in a section of the room.
When we do enlarge her pen, we wanted to look into getting her a rabbit friend to bond with. We were thinking to see if any rabbit-housing shelters would let us schedule a date to bring her in to look at the friendlier rabbits and see how she interacts with them. Do shelters do this? I want her to be happy with her new friend and I understand bonding can be very hard work and sometimes won't work out at all! If it doesn't work out, I will keep both rabbits separately, but then I'd have to get them BOTH a bonded partner later on. Four rabbits and three cats is a lot to take care of--especially money wise! But, I personally have never given up on an animal. Any tips on choosing a partner for her? She is a spayed female, just over a year old. Very friendly towards our cats, but a bit skiddish around people.
