The English Angora rabbits is one of the most popular of the Angora breeds. Perhaps, the cute, lovable face with heavy wool furnishings on the ears, face and feet make them so adorable. The wool texture is soft, cottony-silky with small percentage of guard hair. Therefore, this breed requires constant grooming, so it is not a breed for small children or people that do not want to work with the high maintenance part of these beautiful creatures. The English Angora is the smallest breed of the four Angoras. It's weight is between 5-7-1/2 lbs at maturity. They are round and soft, kind of like a huge cotton ball or "cotton candy". An English Angora in full coat is a breathtaking sight! When one sees an English Angora they many times think it is a furry puppy or cat, but no, it is a superb rabbit with long wool that is a dream to caress and spin.
