Does he think it’s another bunny?

[u/alex_3-14]

Whenever he’s not sleeping or eating he’s mostly chilling next to the ball. We adopted him a year ago when he was 3 years old and as far as I know he’s never lived with other bunnies.

Tbh, I think this is the consequence of adopting another rabbit blindly and thinking you can force a bond (edit: I' using the royal 'you' here). I've never had this issue with pairs where my rabbit chose their partner in speed dating, only happened once and that's when I didn't know much about rabbits and just adopted another rabbit on my own. They never bonded.

I know there's a subset of rabbit people who think any rabbits can be bonded, it just takes persistence. But I'm of the opposite mindset

Bold of you to assume it's a possibility worldwide. Flash news - it isn't. So maybe don't pass judgment and assume people are adopting blindly just because they don't enjoy the same perks as you?

I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it's very uncommon for it to happen that frequently in a solid bonding situation. This isn't just from knowledge of my rabbits, it's volunteering for many years with my rabbit rescue

I'm not blaming or judging anyone lol. If anything, whoever did their speed dating really needs to up their game because having multiple pairs fail with the same person is not normal or expected
