One of my pair of neutered males died yesterday. I'd had them for six years, they were bonded from birth, and he was the dominant rabbit in the relationship.
The remaining rabbit has always been very shy and nervous, and has recently started suffering from head-tilt, though it's under control with Panacur. Frankly he's not well, and I thought he'd go first.
I don't want him to be on his own, but I don't know if he's got much longer to live. I'm also afraid he might not be able to cope with a new partner, considering his age and health. I see three options; to have him put down now, to care for him on his own as long as he lives, or to try and bring in a new friend to keep him company for his last summer.
Has anyone else been in this position? Any insight or advice?
Thanks, Sandy
