===Wool block=== {{Main|Domestic rabbit#Digestion}} Because of the length and abundance of their hair, Angora rabbits are particularly susceptible to ''wool block'', a potentially lethal blockage of the digestive tract. All rabbits ingest some of their wool when they groom themselves, but their digestive system is sometimes not able to pass that foreign matter. The length of Angora hair compounds the risk of impaction, which can lead to death. Clipping or plucking an Angora's wool every 90β120 days is necessary to prevent wool block.<ref>{{Cite web |title=French Angora Rabbit β Everything You Need to Know |url=https://domesticanimalbreeds.com/french-angora-rabbit-everything-you-need-to-know/ |access-date=2025-03-12 |website=domesticanimalbreeds.com |language=en-US}}</ref>
