Should i get a baby bunny?

Question

I have a 1 and a half year old male new zeland dwarf rabbit. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to get a baby bunny for him. I was reading and it said it is a great idea but im not sure. Suggestions?

Answer 1

baby bunnys are cute. but they are no match for baby guinea pigs.

Answer 2

Go ahead :)

It will be nice to give your rabbit company. Add an extra food and water bowl so they wont fight over food for the first couple weeks. If they fight, you may want to get another cage. I'm sure the pet store wouldn't mind you taking your current rabbit in and let him pick his new friend!

Answer 3

Uhm, Male rabbits dont get along normally. But if you ment a lover to breed him with then yeah, but they cant stay in the same cage all the time.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Rabbits LOVE company. Just make sure that it is the same gender as your other one. That would be a good idea. It's good to give your rabbit company for when your not around.

It's a good idea to have multiple rabbits, because rabbits are very sociable creatures and get bored and lonely easily. However, rabbits are very territorial and you cannot expect to just put two rabbits together and expect them to get along.

If your rabbit is neutered (which is a good idea anyway) finding him a new bunny friend will be much, much easier. I cannot stress that enough.  If you decide on a boy bunny, then there won't be the male territorial problem which can get very nasty. If you decide on a female bunny, then you won't have litters and litters of babies which you do NOT want to deal with!

If he's already neutered,  try to schedule a play date to see if they get along. I would recommend trying a female. Bring the cage or enclosure that you  keep your current rabbit in and try to put both of them in and see what  happens. Definitely supervise.  He will eventually get along with one if you look for the right one! good luck :)
