IF you ask for advice please listen to it. Guinea pigs should NOT live with rabbits. I do think another rabbit friend is the only option for this rabbit.

If your rabbit likes guinea pig food and enjoys eating it, it doesnt mean its good for them... i enjoy eating chocolate but i would be very poorly if thats all i ate. Please check the correct diet for your rabbit. If in doubt please do ask x

Re: advice wanted for my rabbit

I give up.

Seemed when you try and educate people they dont want to listen so intentional go cause suffering to animals.

11 or not youve just been advised not to do something given reasons why and still you carry on.

Re: advice wanted for my rabbit

Just to point out that guinea pig food contains vitamin C rabbits need vitamin D so there food is made for their own requirements.

Please listen to the advice that has been given. I can't imagine that a good vet who knows about guineas and rabbits would advise to rebond with another guinea pig.

Re: advice wanted for my rabbit

i would get your rabbit another rabbit friend

as said bunnies and piggies should not live together, how old was your pig? they can live to 6 - 8 years + i would highly suspect yours died young due to the bordatella bacteria rabbits carry, which is leathal to guinea pigs

rabbits and piggies are social in different ways, speak different languages so to speak, and can never be truely happy with each other

also a kick from a rabbit is enough to break the ribs of a dog, it is more then enough to kill a piggy

rabbits can not eat piggy food, it is VERY bad for them, and piggies can not eat rabbit food it can KILL them


having said this, it does sound like your bun is sad on his own, so i would get him neutered, and pop down to a rescue who will help you pair him up with a new bunny friend and help you bond him
