Thank you all for your comments, I am not really coping with her loss. It has hit me so very very hard.
I totally understand your thoughts, poor Rupert are you very far from Craig? Is it worth a go with Flo? Xx

Personally, I think it's too early for you to make any decisions about Rups. One option might be to foster a companion for Rups, but I really think you should give yourself more time.
I completely understand this, sending you so many hugs xxRups is so sad, when she died, I sat on the floor with her for a while. Then I put her on the dining room floor. Rups came in and sat on her - realised something was wrong and nudged her. He then started to wash her face. It proper broke my heart. Then he stamped his foot and went inside his house and up into the loft.
After a little while I moved her but only when she started to go into rigor. I must have checked for a pulse 100 times - but I knew she had gone.
It is causing issues at home now as I said that these 2 were my last 2 but I expected to have them for quite a few years. Rups is only coming up 3 years old. My situation at home is very different to when we first got bunnies. I have a 3 year old 4 days a week. I have some pretty large responsibilities for caring and I work full time. It is not right to get another yet I dont want to give Rups up - and I can not bear the idea of him being alone.
OH is being so sensible and saying rehome Rups but my heart says no but I know it would be for the best. I just dont want to though.
Sorry for the blubbing post - I just need to talk to people who understand.
