The owner said that grooming is less stressful if he stays trimmed.

Wally isn't being trimmed for money. Or so it seems.

It's labor intensive but the fur is lush enough to justify it. I can't imagine bunny shearing for the fur but it's probably being done someplace.

This little bunny looks more like a pet.

because he hates brushing so much.

Bunnies can be on the timid side, so you really need to avoid things they don't like.

We fed them just like that. We turned them loose once they were big enough. Cute little fuckers.

They live under the Spirea that ate Taylors, SC. They're not angora, but they're awfully cute.

It's now something like 16 feet and still growing. The rabbits have a den somewhere underneath it.

My sons found him hiding under one of our cars and brought him in... I think he was probably an Easter pressie that was set loose when someone tired of him.

We awakened one morning to him having passed during the night. He was very sweet.

They hang around and get pretty close to you while grazing, as long as you're
not making all kinds of noise.

Those ears are a riot.

Saw a lot of Angora cats when I lived there when I was young, but don't remember Angora wabbits! Turkey's famous leader, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, was rumored to have been reborn as a cat, which is why Turks cherish them as pets so much.

I guess there are also Angora goats too!
