As some of you know, I talked about maybe rehoming some of my furry pets when I lost Micky. I was in terrible grief, and felt as though I had let them down in one being killed I'm getting a clearer mind now, and feel as though I'm still happy to get Albert piggy a wifepig when he's been castrated, and obviously my two bonded male piggies will stay together.
This leaves me with Autumn leaf, who is a bit more tricky because now, she has no future partner (Micky was to be her partner if they bonded, I suspected they would as both very similar in that they are incredibly gentle buns). Now that I'm thinking clearer, I still feel as though I just couldn't open my heart to anymore buns as it's so devastating when you lose them. Obviously this could change in the future, but as it stands now for the foreseeable future it's just a no-go for me. If it changed - it would be such a long time off.
Autumn is a house bunny who is incredibly human orientated. She follows us around, climbs all over us and bosses us into cuddles and grooms - she even grooms us back I am at home with her most of the day - although, it won't be the case forever. I'm wondering whether she can truly be happy as a single bun given her nature, or whether I'm not putting her needs first. She is incredibly affectionate. I've included a poll in case anyone doesn't feel comfortable with giving a straight answer, as I believe the polls are anonymous?
I'm incredibly attached to her. But, I really must put her first and if you don't feel it's fair on her then please feel free to say - that's what this thread is for. I don't know if not being emotionally able to welcome another bun really justifies not meeting her needs. This isn't a poll about rehoming her at all - just whether I need to suck it up and get on with doing what's right by her - I guess my main fear is not liking the new bun, or almost resenting him as he won't be Micky. I know that sounds awful. Thanks in advance xxx
