Rabbits are social animals and in the wild will live in large group. Ensuring your pet rabbit has a companion can reduce their anxiety, stress and keep them happy. When rabbits are housed alone they may feel isolated, bored or frustrated. Rabbits should not be housed with other species of animals, such as guinea pigs, as they both require different needs from diet and social support.
