Rabbits are adorable animals that come in a range of sizes, forms, and hues. Some of them have an extra feature that makes them more appealing: their fur is extremely soft, like velvet. These rabbits, called "rex rabbits," have fur that is shorter, denser, and more uniform than regular rabbits' due to a genetic mutation. The history, character traits, and upkeep of some of the most popular and gorgeous velvet-furred rabbit breeds will be covered in this article. Explain Rex Fur. Some kinds of dogs, cats, and rodents resemble rex fur. This also applies to some types of rabbits. Rex fur lacks the guard hairs, the longer, coarser hairs that cover the undercoats of other mammals.
