please can you give me your opinions :D

took in a bunny on thursday who was paired with a guineapig, the owners kept the guineapig and got a baby pig to go with it and dumped the rabbit with a friend of mine:cry::cry:
since then the bunny has been really quiet, sleeping most of the time, not alot of interest in anything, not eating a great deal,
he,s been to the vets, teeth are fine cant find anything wrong
unsure of age, does this sound like an elderly rabbit or a lonely bunny
what do you think :?
 
Could be stressed, or pining. I would suspect being lonely because an old bun will generally act spritely and interested unless there is some reason not to.

Is this bun going to get a wifey bun?
 
ive tried him with a speyed girl and all hell broke loose and he ended up sitting in the bedroom bit all upset so ive bought him indoors im very worried about him:cry::cry:
 
Is it possible that you could have bloods done on him? I know its tough because your a rescue. We thought Daniel was just a really docile, quiet bunny who slept all day because that was him, but it turned out that we just never really knew him before illness started taking over him :(
 
sounds possibly lonely or in need of the right companion is likely a bit stressed with move maybe thats why it went wrong?
 
sleeping:roll: again bless him, ive got him in an indoor cage and the door is open but no interest in coming out :cry::cry:
 
Sleep is probably the best thing for him at the moment, he's been through a lot of stress poor boy. I'm sure he will have a little explore later when he feels more settled :)
 
definitely a lonely bun, I've seen that w/ my own bunny Minnie when her boyfriend Monty passed away. Rabbit can easily be psychologically stress and can die in this situation, you should get him a companion from any of the nearby rescue centers
