As for getting her a friend, I will have to get my husband to agree I would love to have a friend for her. She does how ever have the cats who she is very good friends with.
Also would putting her with another rabbit be safe? If she has been living on her own in her own hutch for the last 5 yrs would that not be risky?
I've often thought about getting her a friend just unsure if it was ok at her age now?

So long as she is bonded properly it is never too late to give them a friend.
Be careful with the cats as all it would take is a playful bat to cause serious harm (rabbits have died from one cat scratch), there is no compromise for a bunny friend IMO.
