UPDATE: Biscuit and Betty have now found new forever homes in Wales so thank you for all your support and offers, this is great news.

If anyone is able to offer two Angora rabbits a home, there are two called Biscuit and Betty who are in need of re-homing. The current owner has made a very difficult decision but due to a change in their work circumstances, they are struggling to keep on top of their two English Angora’s wool and feel it is unfair on them. 

They think the best way would be to rehome them to someone who has more time and plenty of experience.  They are 9 months old, male and female both neutered. They are currently kept outdoors. 

If you are interested contact the NAC who will put you in touch with the current owner.

The two bunnies that need rehoming are located in Knaresborough in Yorkshire.

An excellent entry of 16 angoras in our stock show and the London championship show, sadly Alan couldn’t make it so we didn’t have the full 16, however Peter brought down one of Alan’s smoke adult angoras and with help got it groomed and ready for the show.
