Alpha Buck
A friend (well, more of a friend of a friend/internet friend really, we've never met) has just got two presumed un neutered does from a rescue as companions for her buck. I have spoken to her and said the chances of a successful bond with un neutered does are very, very low. (Please feel free to tell me if I'm wrong) the rescue apparently don't neuter does, only bucks and only really have pairs available but were prepared to split a male/female pair so my friend could take a single doe, but she didn't feel she should do that.
Anyway, friend had the best intentions but realises she has made a mistake. She cannot afford to neuter the does and doesn't know what to do. The rescue will take them back but if she wants a single bunny then it will be taken from a pair and it still won't be neutered.
I've suggested contacting the PDSA about neutering, I'm not sure if she's eligible, I've suggested she contact a different rescue for advise. She has phoned the RSPCA who basically just told her she shouldn't have taken any other rabbits if she couldn't look after them. I totally see what they are saying, but that's not much help, is it?
Any ideas/suggestions please? This person is in Derbyshire if that helps.
