Benny, the angora rabbit Becky gave me, recently had his first haircut! Angora rabbits are known as "apartment sheep" because they are fiber-producing animals that can live in any urban setting :)
He didn't particularly enjoy his first haircut, but he sure feels
Good now! He's extra friendly and playful.... I think it must feel good to get rid of that mop of hair.
I think it would be fun to mix his first "shearing" with fiber from Bonnie and Carlos - the colors will blend beautifully, and it should make a luxurious fiber blend....whaddayasay, Becky? :)
I love the ear tufts that you left him - good in case he needs a fly swatter. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd, he kind of has mutton-chops too, it is hard to see in the pic but in real life is very funny :)
DeleteOhh, I want a bunny like Benny! I bet Emma would enjoy having a bunny too. Maybe someday...
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat looking rabbit, both before and after. He does look more comfortable after the shave. I spin my own wool sometimes and it would be cool to give bunny hair a try once. Thanks for sharing your pictures. I learn something new everyday.
ReplyDeleteYES! I think that would be a fantastic combo! :) Oh, Benny.. you're such a cute fuzzlebutt. He is *so* much smaller when he's nekkid. ;)
ReplyDeleteare you kidding me. This makes me ridiculously giddy.
