I have 4 rabbits Elvis and Amber who are paired and Jake and Sam. Sam was a female and was paired with Jake but a couple of months ago they started fighting. Sam has since been spayed and I have tried to rebond Sam and Jake but to no avail.
The ideal scenario would be to now get Sam and Jake a girlfriend each. But my other half has said that we are not getting anymore unless one goes. He says 6 is too many. (We also have a dog, 3 cats and 14 chickens!!)
So, putting my emotions aside I thought its better for them to be paired than to stay here and kept on their own.
So, I've put Sam on the RSPCA list to be rehomed. I thought that way he'll go to a home that has been checked out etc. But when ever I go out to see them I just hate the thought of him going. He is so placid (except with other males), he has never bitten and hes so beautiful. Hes a harlequin rex. I feel like I am giving up one of my children!! Silly eh?
So, do you think I should just be really strict with myself and accept hes got to go and then get Jake a girlfriend or should I follow my heart and keep him.
They are all kept in the summerhouse in hutches and runs but I cant find room in their for another hutch/run unless I cut back on the others accomodation. So, the only place he could go would be on the patio at a squeeze. I have a big garden but its on all different layers.
My mind is all over the place. Please can someone set me straight!!
