Rabbits are social animals and require a lot of social interaction. It can be very beneficial to keeping a couple of bonded rabbits.
Older rabbits will often bond with younger rabbits, but both rabbits must be neutered/spayed. People often say that male/female (buck/doe) matches work best, but two neutered bucks and/or two spayed females have often been known to get along just as well.
