I know rabbits should see the body of a partner if it dies so they know it's dead but what do they feel or think when they see the other rabbit has died? Do they feel sadness or do they just realize that their partner isn't there any more. When Molly died she wasn't in the hutch, she'd managed to get out and got hit by a car, and Archie got out too, but I don't think he got into the front garden so probably didn't see Molly get hit by the car. So all he probably saw/knew was Molly got out of the hutch and then when I found her body I put in in the hutch. Since her death he won't go on the gravel (which is by the gate where Molly got out) could that be because he knows Molly went that way and died or do rabbits not think like that?
Also, if an owner moves out or passes away, do you think they really notice? Do they wonder where they've gone? I mean if they have other people to look after them? Do they notice the individual person or do you think they just see all humans as the people who bring food and care for them? Sorry for all these questions, I don't really understand how rabbits minds work or how much they understand.
