  My mama lionhead passed away, leaving her daughter Ginger alone. The daddy passed away years ago & we only kept the one bunny from mamas’ litter. Should I get another bunny for Ginger? She has been an indoor bunny all of her 7 years, and never alone. I’m not sure 2 females qualify as a bonded pair, but I’m needing help to figure out what to do.

  How does Ginger seem to be taking the loss of her mother? Some bunnies get really depressed when they lose their bonded friend (even though mother and daughter they can still be considered bonded). If Ginger seems happy being a single bun, it would totally fall on whether you want or don’t want another bunny. If Ginger doesn’t handle being alone well, you could consider taking her bunny dating at a shelter or rescue and let her pick out a friend.
  
  JMO, but with her being 7 years old, I wouldn’t run out and get a baby bunny — they’re pretty energetic and might be annoying to Ginger.

  I agree with JR. Maybe take Ginger on some bunny dates and see how she responds. She would probably enjoy the company of a full-grown calm bunny since that’s who she was sharing her time with already!

  I’ve been watching Ginger this weekend & she seems to be doing OK without her mama. She’s been playing, binkying & eating good. I will look into getting her some play dates tho. Being around another bunny regularly sounds like a good idea. (plus I like to watch bunnies play with each other, lol) Thank you for the advice!
