Hi
My bunnies have a garden shed 6 x 8, although they got on ok together, they were not what I would call "in love" and although there was some mutual grooming from time to time, both liked their own space and when they were allowed freedom of the garden, they kind of went their own way a bit.
Unfortunately, and most upsetting, I lost Lara on Wednesday after she died coming round from her eye removal op. Since then I have bought Bonnie indoors, because I didn't want to leave her stuck in a shed with no company. She is absolutely fantastic indoors and seems so happy, eating well, pooing well and just chilling out/flopping and also really interacting with us. She is very friendly and affectionate anyway, and I think she must have lived indoors in her previous home before she found her way to the rescue. Anyway, she seems to have decided that the kitchen area is good for her! Our home is fairly quiet, we don't have kids but will things like cooking smells upset her (silly I know, but just worried!). In my heart I think I should get her another bun to go back to the shed with, but I am really seeing the best of her indoors and she seems quite happy, licking our feet whilst we put the kettle on etc. As much as I love having her in, I want to do whats best for Bonnie. I go to work every day, although I can and do pop home several times, even before she moved in. Should I just treat this as a temporary measure until I get her a friend - not sure my o/h would tolerate 2 buns indoors - that might be pushing my luck too far!
