English Angora

English Angora

The English Angora rabbit is a captivating breed known for its luxurious and long, silky wool. Characterized by its petite size and friendly demeanor, this breed is one of the smallest of the Angora family, typically weighing between 5 and 7.5 pounds. Its most striking feature is its dense coat, which covers not just the body but also the face, ears, and feet, giving it a distinctively fluffy appearance. This coat requires regular grooming to prevent matting but is highly prized for its softness in the fiber arts community.

Unlike some rabbit breeds, English Angoras have a calm and sociable personality, making them excellent companions for those willing to dedicate the time to their grooming needs. Their expressive eyes and playful nature endear them to both pet owners and show enthusiasts alike. These rabbits come in a variety of colors and patterns, adding to their charm and popularity. Despite their regal appearance, English Angoras are hardy animals but do require a proper diet rich in fiber to support their digestion and manage their dense wool production. All in all, the English Angora is a delightful breed suited to those who appreciate both its beauty and its gentle companionship.
