Hello everyone! My little man Crixus will be ten months a few short days. He was neutered back in March and healthy and happy as ever. Crixus and I are the best of friends. We spend hours on end with each other on a day to day basis. I have a total soft spot for buns (which you guys can relate to) and for several months I have been thinking about adopting another bunny through some local shelters. (I thought this would be the smartest option so I could see how the rabbit gets along with mine).
After many many months I have had no luck, either the buns are located too far away and the ones close by are males and I have read bonding two males can be difficult. I finally came across a little lop girl named Snickers who is only an hour away from me and four years old. Crixus and Snickers are meeting this Saturday and I'm super excited to see if they get along.
If all goes well and I see that they have potential to be bonded together eventually, I would love to adopt her. The thing is Crixus and I have a VERY strong bond and I don't want her to feel left out. Her owner owned her for many years and lost interest of her as she became a teenager, so this little girl deserves the very best. I mean, I could be completely wrong maybe I will be the one left out once they become bonded
So here's my questions! For everyone who has two bunnies, do you have a stronger relationship with a particular bun? How did getting another rabbit impact your relationship with your own? And also, Snickers is considerably older than Crixus, is it mean of me to bond him to someone who will obviously not be around as long as him? I know buns can get very upset when their mates pass. I don't know, just any advice on how to distribute the love fairly between my little bundles of love would be great. Thank you all!
