Overview

The Satin Angora is a large rabbit breed, reaching up to about 9.5 lb. Silky sheen wool. Rabbits commonly live 8–12 years — longer than many first-time owners expect.

Is the Satin Angora right for you?

A good match if — you can give a rabbit space, a companion and daily care; you're new to rabbits.

Think twice if — you expected a low-effort "starter" pet — rabbits are not; you have no time for frequent grooming.

What a Satin Angora needs from you

Rabbits are social animals that do best in a bonded pair and should never be kept fully alone. A Satin Angora needs a good amount of room to run and stretch, a hay-based diet, daily cleaning and fairly demanding upkeep. That wool coat needs frequent brushing to prevent painful mats. Most rabbits dislike being picked up, so handling should be calm and on their terms.
