Care & health
Setup, routines, and health considerations
Care overview
High-maintenance coat care is the core requirement; plan frequent grooming and a setup that keeps the coat clean and mat-free.
Environment & space
Standard medium-rabbit space works, but cleanliness matters more because wool traps debris easily.
Daily routine
Daily routines often include coat checks and keeping wool free of tangles and debris.
Health sensitivities
Higher risk of mat-related skin irritation and wool ingestion issues if grooming is inconsistent.
Grooming / coat
Long wool coat with high grooming demands and frequent maintenance needs.
Background
Origins and how that history shapes what you see today
Origin region
France
Background
A long-coated Angora type valued for dense wool and a substantial, plush look. The identity is the coat—everything about care and daily life orbits grooming and wool management.
Social & behavior
Temperament and interaction style
Personality & activity
Often a quiet presence—more “hang nearby” than “run the whole time.”
Handling & social style
Often gentle, but handling needs to be calm and deliberate to avoid stressing the coat or the rabbit. Regular, patient grooming helps trust.
