Another second rabbit?
My rabbit died 2 days ago 🙁 because it had a disability and probably died because of that too. My other rabbit – the two were inseparable and very used to each other – is now alone in the hutch. They were both neutered/male and about 1 year old. I'm therefore very unsure whether I should really put a second rabbit back in, since they were so used to each other. I've already looked in the animal shelters near me and found a female rabbit who will probably turn 1 in November/December. I'm not sure whether I should take her, because I spoke to my vet and he said you should put younger rabbits in with them so they get used to it.
*she is also female
*you wrote in the description that a castrated buck is wanted
Hey,
my heartfelt insult!! 😢
you have to choose another rabbit. Individual holding in rabbits is an absolute no go.
Even if the two were inseparable, it is better for your other rabbit if it gets another fellow.

The rabbits need a lot of space. A stable is not sufficient if there are no 3 square meters per animal. For two rabbits you need approx. 6 – 8 square meters Place.

Hello 🤗🙋🏽
In any case, you should take the animal. An art comrade is absolutely necessary.
But remember them to associations. At the shelter you will be advised.
Dear Greetings I hope I could help you
I’d get the rabbit! Everything else would be animal torture (with the help of your text, I don’t think that’s in your intention). Your rabbit needs company, and if it doesn’t work, you can still get in touch with the shelter!
Why worry? That sounds good. I don’t think there are problems.
