Hi Everyone,
I have a single male rabbit called Vlad. He's a sticky up eared rabbit (looks a bit like a bad carpet) but he's a lovely lad. He lost his partner last year and was pining, so we got him another, called Lola. Sadly on Saturday, I went outside to feed them at night and found Lola had passed away in the hutch (despite being just 2 years old). No warning, no ill health - just sudden.
My question is this. Vlad is between 7-9 years of age (unsure as we rescued him originally - was found in a filing cabinet). I already have another pair, who are male and female and around 5 years old. I'm loathe to get another rabbit to partner Vlad as he is getting old and this situation will continue indefinitely, but I also cannot condemn him to spending the rest of his time alone.
So my options are...
1) Try to bond the three (have tried in the past and it didn't go well)
2) Offer Vlad to any lonely female partners out there
Any advice appreciated. I have an indoor rabbit called Monty (boy), so can't even bring him inside.
Thanks
