So basically Baby is a single rabbit, recently had ovarian cancer, it may or may not spread but if it does she's unlikely to show many symptoms so I need to keep a really close eye on her. I also want her to have the best life possible, especially considering she might not have that long left.
Anyway, I planned on bonding her to my trio, but the other female is absolutely awful with her, at first they just happily hopped round and ate next to each other, but anytime Baby made a sudden movement, my other girl Naami went for her, didn't bite her but she may of nipped and went for her in a really aggressive way. It really scared Baby. Anyway a few days later I put the runs next to each other like I've always done, but Naami started being quite aggressive again, trying to get to Baby through the bars, something she never did before Unless I can find some expert bonder near by I really don't think it's going to work, and I don't have the money or space for another rabbit.
So what I was wanting opinions on was should I maybe try keep her as a single rabbit? That way at least she gets a lot more attention than she currently does in her hutch, but it also means I can keep a good eye on her eating/pooing/drinking/weeing and activity and hopefully pick up any signs that her cancer has spread, something I wouldn't be able to do if she was bonded.
ETA: I forgot to add, she does like human company. She's been bonded to another rabbit before but they weren't close, no fighting but they'd spend their time sat on different floors or at opposite sides of their hutch and barely interact. I had to separate them in the end because she pulled his fur when she humped him and his back was getting a bit sore Also, as I mentioned earlier I usually put the runs next to each other, but she doesn't act any differently when she's next to them, doesn't sit and watch them, doesn't try to get to or interact with them, she doesn't appear to crave the company of another rabbit like all my others have pre-bond
