Angora rabbit

The Angora rabbit is a domestic rabbit variety known for it’s long, soft hair.
Origin:
This is one of the oldest types of domestic rabbit, originating in Ankara, Turkey. The rabbits were popular at French royalty in the mid 1700s, and gradually to other parts of Europe.At first they were at United States in the early 1900s.
Skin and appearance :
The wool of Angora’s are mainly silky and soft. They have a humorous appearance; they oddly resemble a fur ball. Their nature is calm and passive. Grooming is necessary to prevent the fibre from matting and felting on the rabbit. A condition "wool block" is common in angora rabbits and should be treated quickly.
Feeding:: :
It is also widely held that feeding both bromaline (found in fresh pineapple) and papaya occasionally will aid in breaking down the ingested wool, and aiding in its passage through the rabbits system.
