Adopting A Second Rabbit
Rabbits are social animals and thrive in pairs. Bonded pairs live fuller lives, and are less prone to boredom.
The costs associated with caring for two rabbits are not much different than when caring for one rabbit. The exception is veterinary bills, but pet insurance may help plan for and reduce medical costs. Also, if you use a pen enclosure for two rabbits, it must be at least double the standard size. The standard size is 4 feet by 2 feet (per rabbit), and high enough for the rabbit to stand up fully on their hind legs.
If you are thinking about adopting a companion for your rabbit, you can schedule a "bunny date" with us where you can bring your rabbit to meet our rescued residents. We can help match a resident whose personality compliments your rabbit's personality. We also advise and can guide you through the bonding process.
