I know it's only been two days since Snowy died, and no bunny could ever replace her, nor do we want to, but we are considering getting a friend for Phillip.
Seeing how happy he was with Snowy, it makes us sad to see him on his own now, and although he is doing seemingly ok, he's not as happy as he was in a pair. We have a lot of love to give to another rescue rabbit too.
We're not going to rush into it, and we will wait for the right one to come along. However, we were considering adopting a pair (ideally females) to make a trio with Phillip.
I'm well aware that bonding groups is unpredictable and you can't ever really say how a bond will go until you try it but I don't know if it's a bad idea bringing two rabbits in to Phillip's environment. All the threads I've read have talked about bringing in a single bunny to an existing pair but not an existing pair to a single bunny's environment, if that makes sense.
Has anyone ever done this? How did it turn out?
Just looking for a bit of advice really.
