i was in pets at home yesterday when i fell in love with a little lionhead rabbit. he was in the adoption centre because he had got too old to sell apparently. he is 18 weeks old.
they told me he doesnt like other rabbits , hes a bit grumpy , when put in the pen with them he flew at them .
is this common ? would he likely be like that with people also?
i am asking because i have never owned a rabbit before , have had guinea pigs but would love to have rehomed this one.
i have done some reading about rabbits and i understand that normally they like to live with a friend .
would this one be happier living alone then ? surely that would be a bit lonely ?
can anyone advise ?
i have two children aged 11 and 14 who wanted me to take him on the spot but i have explained that more info and thought is needed first!
thanks
