Angora rabbits typically have long fur. Shelly was completely matted, some had wounds, and all were underweight and covered in parasites. They were all groomed and treated for the parasites, and after several weeks we put them up for adoption. Shelly’s before picture (with the patchy fur) is quite a stark difference from her gorgeous looks today (second photo, with her best friend, Care Bear)! She was successfully adopted and is living the life in her new forever home!
