If you have a single, happy rabbit please post your photos and thoughts about singledom.
The reason I'm asking is that I lost MJ, my male bun, last week. Prior to MJ and Opal, I had MJ and Pippa and after seeing bunnies all cuddled up and grooming each other I said I would never have a single rabbit again
However, after a couple of quiet days, Opal actually seems quite chilled out and relaxed. In fact, the most relaxed since I've had her. I found her earlier stretched out in her litter tray fast asleep - in the 3ish years since I have had her I have never seen her asleep or chilled out. She's always seemed a stressed bunny albeit devoted to MJ. She's friendlier to me also, normally she'd hide behind MJ if she saw me coming but now she's coming to me for her greens.
So would it be unfair of me to try her on her own for a while? Do you have a perfectly happy single rabbit? Do some rabbits prefer life on their own? Bear in mind she lives outside and is unable to live inside due to my hubby's allergy (to hay not rabbits!).
