The Angora Rabbit.

Angora rabbits are adorable, fluffy little animals. They are often kept as pets as they are fun, curious and friendly animals. There are four main breeds of angora rabbits, English, French, Satin and Giant, those four breeds are recognized by the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) Another common breed is the German Angora Rabbit. If you have a well mannered cat, you should consider getting an Angora rabbit, but you should have a good amount of time on your hands as they need regular grooming otherwise their fur will get matted. The breed that needs the least amount of grooming is the French Angora rabbit as they do not have a woolly face or woolly feet. Angora rabbits live to be about 7 years old if they are treated well, but sadly in China they are abusing these poor helpless animals for their fur which is amazingly softer than cashmere. In China they are ripping their fur out from their sensitive skinand even worse, these rabbits go through this torture every 3 months for 2- to 5 years and then if the poor things haven't died by then they hang them and slit their throats. A person has created a website about this cruelty to learn more click this link. Angora rabbits need to eat a lot of hay to help them digest the fur that they swallow while groomed themselves, otherwise it will get stuck in their digestive systems. If you still haven't noticed, Angora rabbits are REALLY furry their fur can grow over 6 feet in diameter! Since Angora rabbits don't shed, their fur needs to be trimmed regularly if they aren't they won't be able to see where they are going.
