Hello everyone :wave: I've not posted for a while, hope you are all well.
We've had Chesney for almost a year now and he is our pride and joy During the day he is in a 7ft x 4ft run (indoors) and in the evening he free ranges round the flat.
He seems happy but I'm concerned that perhaps he gets bored when we're not there. He has lots of chew toys etc but after reading all the info here about how bunnies are better in pairs (I did not realise this when we got him ) we're considering a bunny addition to the family.
My problem is we can't extend the space by much, perhaps another foot wider so it will be 7x5ft, so is that big enough for two buns? And - more importantly - I know the bonding process could be lengthy.
Can anyone advise if you think I'd be better to leave him as he is (like I said, no outward signs of unhappiness at all - he is very active and loves to run about and chase my OH down the hall!) or should I consider a friend for him?
Thanks in advance.
(PS I tried to search for 'bonding' in the threads but it kept saying I was answering the random question wrongly. The Q was favourite animal and my answer was rabbit!!!!)
