Afternoon all!
I didn't want to be here for this reason, but I'm in need of some major help. I've been looking online but it isn't helping me as much as I would like.
We had two pairs of rabbits and yesterday we sadly lost one of each pair.
This means we are left with two single rabbits. Both have been brought inside to get maximum attention from us humans.
So I have a couple of questions.
One of the bunnies seems fine. She's doing well. However, the other, not so well. She really relied on her friend and now she has gone she doesn't really know what to do. She won't really eat unless im sat there with her, so im having to go in and encourage her to eat and drink. As upsetting as it is, I assume this is normal for the grieving process? Will she come out of this stage herself? And what can I do to help her?
Now for the biggest question. What to do with two single bunnies? They are both females and as far as I understand bonding two females is difficult? Correct me if I'm wrong! We are planning on getting them spayed anyway. But would this help with the bonding? Would it even be worth just TRYING to bond them? They are both just under a year old. If we could bond them together it would defintely be for the best.
Or just any general advice on the subject would be so greatful! We have just never expericned this before and are completely lost!
Thankyou x
