Actually, I read somewhere that adult bunnies prefer adult company and not a baby. So the baby would be for your benefit and not for her.

It’s a shame that the kitties are not interested in interacting with her, she sounds really social. Well, I can only say that getting a second bunny was such a good thing – for us at least. There was never an issue with the bonding, and now that I have two I can really see how much Karl longed for company.

I think you should give it a chance It sounds like you already have your hands full with animals, so I cannot see that one more bunny could be problematic for you.

Oh, please do try to see if you can film Hunny playing with the cat toys!! Sounds like fun.

You want to do it…and you should I mean, if you live with 7 cats, you obviously have the patience, and as you say you are already vacuming every day (so am I!). I cannot see why not. Only thing is that Hunny may not see all the fun in a baby bunny, but of course eventually the new bunny will grow up and be a playful teenager she can have fun with.

I wish I could live like you do! My boyfriend and I are moving out into the country as well next year, and he has promised me I can have an endless amount of animals, but I am not ready for it yet ’cause it really does make holidaying difficult. So I have to restrain myself until I am tired of travelling abroad.

A word of caution… many times people make breed generalizations that are not true, or have very little research behind them. Do be aware however that Netherland Dwarfs are PROBABLY not going to be as calm and docile as your large lop. So if that is what you and your grandchildren are used to, I just don’t want you to be surprised if the little guy bites or is very skittish. Many people have wonderful ND bunnies that are calm and sweet, but that is not always the case. If you are going to have bunnies around children, it’s preferable to have a larger breed that they are not going to try to pick up.

It usually works better to take your rabbit to a shelter where she can pick out an adult, altered friend of her own choosing, but it might be possible to get a baby and bond them once the baby is older and neutered.

I have a neatherland dwarf and he is a zooming frantic rushing never stopping into everything! I know a few people with Bunnies who see to be happy to lie around all day, basically if Bugs is out of the cage he is moving! However if is a little scared of me but has never bitten or scratched me. Is there a shelter near you that has Bunnies? i agree with seeing if Hunny can pick her future husband!

I personally wouldn’t recommend just bringing a bunny into the house without first seeing how the future bunny and Hunny Bunny get along. Bunny bonding is a very complicated thing, and it can be made very difficult if the two bunnies don’t get along, and you would have to be prepared to keep both bunnies separately for as long as it takes to bond them, or permanently if they do not bond. Even though Hunny bunny sounds super sweet, sometimes two bunnies don’t get along for reasons that we can’t understand. For that reason, I really recommend taking Hunny Bunny to a rescue to “date” some other bunnies to see how she does, and allow her to pick a mate.

I have two netherland dwarfs, and they are pretty much the opposite personalities of my larger bunnies. They are pretty skittish, and startle easily, and really prefer to observe me from afar than hang out with me They are very sweet, but generally just a little more nervous.
