Do rabbit have a longer life with a spouse?

I have an only rabbit, and she's almost 2 years old. She is a dwarf(not sure what kind) and is like 2.5 pounds. I just want to know if another rabbit were to keep her company, would she live a happier and longer life?Do rabbit have a longer life with a spouse?
Hello,





Is she neutered? You won't be able to pair her unless she is,as when paired with a male/buck she could possibly have a new litter of 5-6 EVERY month,considering that a rabbits gestation period lasts for 31 days(1 month) %26amp; she is willing to mate again straight after she kindles(births). A neutered male %26amp; female rabbit makes a excellent pair,its recommended. Due to the reason they both respect each other,even if they aren't neutered. Two males rabbits together do not usually get on well,two females together also have similar affects,although when neutered most single sex pairs do get on,having one of each sex,plus getting them neutered has best results.





It is said neutered paired rabbits live a slightly longer %26amp; I do say fuller/happier life! As they always have each other,even when you're not there. Unaltered %26amp; non breeding female rabbits have a 80% chance of getting Uterus cancer,by the time they are 4-5 years of age. Isn't that a good enough reason to get her neutered(spayed) if she isn't already?





Hope I helped,best wishes! xxxDo rabbit have a longer life with a spouse?
Well, when two rabbits are together they are much happier because they have another bunny to socialize with. Two bunnies together may not neccessarily live longer, but they groom each other and cuddle up to each other. Also, is your rabbit neutered? If you get another rabbit, and it is a male, and they aren't nuetered, they will breed. Also if your rabbit isn't neutered she has a 85% chance of getting cancer. If you take your rabbit out and socialize with her a lot, then I'm sure your rabbit is a happy bunny. Although a companion for her would always be good too.
your bunny might be okay with a NEUTERED male.. but if you put her with an intact one it will shorten her life for sure..





breeding is always risky, and some rabbits if they dont have babies younger, their hips become hard so they cannot deliver sucessfully and die..
Rabbits can't get married.
i seriously doubt it
bunny! lol
