Can rabbits live alone or do they need a companion?

Rabbits are social animals and generally thrive when they have a companion. In the wild, rabbits live in groups and rely on each other for protection and social interaction. Domestic rabbits also benefit from having a companion, as they can provide each other with companionship, mental stimulation, and even grooming.

However, not all rabbits get along with each other, so it is important to introduce them carefully and gradually. It is also important to ensure that both rabbits are spayed or neutered, as this can reduce aggressive behavior and prevent unwanted litters.

If you are unable to provide a companion for your rabbit, it is important to ensure that they receive plenty of attention and interaction from their human family members. Spending time with your rabbit, providing them with toys and mental stimulation, and engaging them in play can help prevent loneliness and boredom.

If you are considering getting a rabbit, it is recommended to get a pair of rabbits, preferably a neutered male and spayed female, who are compatible with each other. This can help ensure that they are able to live happy and healthy lives.
