I am really ashamed to post this - but I've terribly neglected my Angora mix bunny, Oskar. Until yesterday he looked smashing: lovely fluffy white fur, soft to the touch, completely disguising the fact that deep down it was terribly knotted.
Once I got down to serious grooming I was shocked to find how bad it actually was and even worse after I had gone through some areas he has big bald patches that have started to regrow though. It looks horrendous now although I know it'll grow back again.
How can I prevent this in the future? How often should I groom? I get away with a very lax attitude to grooming with my lionheads but realized I can't apply this to Oskar.
I usually just seperate and pluck with his fur. I find most brushes disappear in his huge coat. Any advice?
Thanks. Sabine
