I am just wondering how many rescues (not rescuers but the actual rescues) are able to bond rabbits that are not their own? In otherwords, those where it doesn't mean a rabbit being adopted to live with another?
I used to do this, but I can no longer spare the time or energy to do it. I am getting more and more requests, which could be for many reasons or course like more people being aware of rabbits needing friends, more people buying rabbits but not realising that they can fall out, more people finding rabbits from preloved etc but who haven't thought about how to put them together with their existing?
I have had to say a blanket no now to everyone where it's not for an adoption from me because I can't do more than I already do.
Do any of you other lovely rescue people have the same problem? Do any other rescues still manage to find the time to bond non-rescue rabbits?
It's so hard as some folks end up asking because of really good intentions, but I am getting more and more where someone has bought the rabbits from a shop or breeder with no advice and then shout for help when the poop hits the fan and the rabbits fall out.
Just interested to know
