Hi everyone
My 7 year-old rabbit, Rahu, lost his beloved brother a month ago, and I'm looking for advice on how to support his wellbeing. The two were completely inseparable and I'm not sure how best to support him now. I was thinking about introducing some young females; however, I have a few concerns about that option - including the risk that he doesn't bond with them - and am wondering whether he might not be better off remaining single now. He *appears* healthy and content, and is showing no behavioral changes, so I don't see any evidence that he is suffering from grief or loneliness. However, I would hate to think that he is suffering in silence and I'm doing nothing about it. He's neutered, in case that's relevant information.
Any advice?
