Lilac

The Lilac breed is rare - according to Wikipedia, there were fewer than 2,000 of them worldwide in 2012 - so it is unlikely that you would find them in a pet shop or rescue situation. They are listed by the American Livestock Conservancy as "Watch" status. According to the Rabbitgeek.com list, based on ARBA registrations, they are no. 8 on the rarest breeds list.

Lilac rabbits have a medium dove gray color fur, with a delicate pink tint on the surface. Their eyes are blue-gray. The fur is about an inch long and "rollback", which means it is soft, dense and resumes a smooth appearance when stroked in any direction. Adult weight for a Lilac rabbit is 5.5-8 pounds.

Note: do not confuse "Lilac" as a breed with "lilac" as a fur color. Many rabbits can have lilac (light bluish grey) fur.
