Depressed?

Can Rabbits get depressed?

My bf is worried about his bunny and has said that Patch has been real quiet as of late, and doesnt seem to want to run around, and he said that Patch was laid on the floor and when my bf went up to him, Patch ran back into his hutch. Normally Patch is full of beans and follows him around.

Please help. ASAP
 
Yeah i think so,

My male did exactly the same thing, n then came round after a week.

They both still have their "bits" if that makes a difference
 
If they are living alone then i think they do get fed up and depressed. How about getting him neutered and then going to a rabbit rescue and pairing him up with a spayed female? They love being in couples and two aren't any more trouble than one :D
 
yeah that is a good idea, but unfortunatly we still live our parents, so i doubt they wud let him. Mine lives in my bedroom so i always try to give him some love lol.

Maybe Patch is just missing the football that he humps lol

The ball got covered in sewage rubbish as we had the floods in this area.
