🧴Care & grooming for the Angora
Angora : Brushing must be daily, without exception, to prevent mats, felting and heavy fur ingestion. The coat also needs to be trimmed or plucked regularly, roughly every three months depending on regrowth, and the hindquarters checked daily to stay clean.
Brushes, hygiene products, parasite control, habitat upkeep: your rabbit’s routine care happens at home, with the right equipment. Our guides separate the essential from the gimmick — and say when the vet, not the shop aisle, should have the answer.
Rabbits groom themselves, but moulting demands regular brushing — they cannot vomit hairballs, which can block the gut.
